There is absolutely no need to worry about this as the vast majority of our clients have either never surfed or have never been in the ocean. Our program specifically caters for beginners and our experienced instructors will assist with your individual needs. Your lesson is conducted in “waist deep” water. This is because you get most success in balance & control when surfing the “broken waves”.
Yes. The reason being they obviously keep you warm, therefore ensuring you will gain the most out of your 2 hour lesson. There is an added safety reason as a wetsuit will help to float you, protect you from skin rashes, and sunburn.

Lorne Community Hospital is a modern state of the art facility, providing emergency and outpatient services. Doctors are available 24 hours a day. The hospital is located less than 1km away in Albert Street.
This is most unlikely as Lorne is one of the safest and most sheltered surf beaches on the coast, because it faces east, and not south, where the cold winds come from. Our wet suits which are provided, and individually fitted, to all participants, are of excellent quality. If this proves insufficient, we have the added safety benefit of piping hot showers directly on the foreshore in the Lorne Clubhouse. We make it our business to have the possibility of “cold” covered from all angles. Booties are also provided upon request.
I wish I did! No, there is no possibility of a single person being able to own such a special facility as this. It is owned by the Lorne Surf Lifesaving Club, which is on what is known as “Crown Land” known as the Lorne Foreshore Reserve.
Our prices at Club Lorne Camp are in line with most school camp costs. When comparing costs it is important to remember that Club Lorne is a fully Accredited Camp with the ACA and Australian Tourism.. This means all industry approved standards are met in terms of booking procedures, safety standards, and of course the required $10 million public liability insurance. While most surf related activities do incur a charge, many of our activities at Club Lorne are free of charge. You will find our surf related activity costs to be very competitive with other surf schools in this area.
