Summer Surf Camp In Pembrokeshire For Kids, Teens & Families
Join Outer Reef Surf Camp in Pembrokeshire for a full-day or multi-day surfing experience designed for young surfers, families and beginners who want more than a standard lesson.
Build confidence, catch more waves, learn ocean safety and spend more time in the sea with friendly instructors and equipment included.
A Surf Camp Experience Built Around Progression
Surf camp gives young surfers more time, more coaching, more confidence and more of a full beach-day experience than a single lesson.
Build Confidence, Catch Waves & Progress Faster
Surf camp is for families and young surfers who want more than a one-off lesson. It gives participants time to settle, practise, receive feedback, set goals and return to the water with more confidence.
Across the day, surfers can work on board handling, pop-ups, wave catching, ocean awareness and personal progression goals while enjoying a proper Pembrokeshire surf adventure.
Kids, Teens, Families & Young Surfers
Surf camp is especially useful for people who want more time than a standard lesson and the chance to build confidence across a full day or two-day experience.

Morning Surf, Lunch Break & Afternoon Progression
A typical full surf camp day gives participants two chances to surf, with time in between to rest, refuel and learn more about the sport.
Morning Surf
Morning surf session from around 9:30am to 12pm, adjusted around conditions where needed.
Lunch & Reset
Take a break at the beach or surf centre to rest, eat and reset for the afternoon.
Board Workshop
Talk through surfboards, personal goals, technique and progression before returning to the water.
Afternoon Surf
Return to the water from around 1pm to 4pm for more waves, technique focus and confidence-building.
Progress Review
Finish the day with feedback, progress review and plenty of stoke for the next session.
Surfboards, Wetsuits & Professional Coaching
Surf camp includes the key equipment and instructor support needed for a safe, fun and progressive day in the sea.
Freshwater West, Manorbier, Newgale & The Best Beach On The Day
Outer Reef chooses the surf camp location based on swell, wind, tide, safety and the needs of the group.
Freshwater West
An iconic Pembrokeshire surf beach used when conditions are suitable for coaching and progression.
Manorbier
A scenic Pembrokeshire beach with a great coastal feel and waves that can work well for camp sessions.
Newgale
A long west-coast beach that can offer good learning and progression conditions when the swell and wind are right.
Flexible Plans When Conditions Change
Surf camp is weather and conditions dependent. Locations, timings and session plans can change depending on tide, wind, waves and safety.
If the surf is not suitable, the team may look at alternative water-based options such as paddle boarding where appropriate.
