Creating Experiences That Empower

Enriching lives through nature based activities using local knowledge, experience and exceptional service.

Awesome surfing lessons with Joe and Chelsea, they are passionate and cheerful, clearly enjoying passing on their skill and love of the surf. In just a couple of sessions our kids have progressed from absolute beginners to standing and riding, catching a wave on their own, and are starting to read the surf to pick the right wave and carve across the face. Patient, knowledgeable and full of energy. Would give six stars, Waves to Wilderness will not disappoint!
