      The 3 month academy is at Arrawarra, just North of Coffs Harbour - our Spot X Surf Camp. Transfers from Sydney - Brisbane - Byron Bay to Spot X are included in the cost of the package. There are 3 meals per day not including weekend - weekends are free for all to enjoy and do what ever they like in the local area - or jump on a bus to Byron Bay for the weekend to explore a little more (not included in the cost).

      TravelerWritten September 2022

      We're still in early planning stages, but are probably looking toward September 2023. My son will be 18, I will likely travel there and stay for a few weeks. Are there resources available for me to get some surf lessons? How big are the groups on average? Can you give me any more details about surfX housing?

    • Mojosurf AustraliaOperatorWritten September 2022

      Our accommodation is either in our teepee village or shared dorm accommodation. Our group sizes vary and we would expect between 6 to 12 doing the different academy packages. We do have cabins onsite all with views of the beach and ocean. We do provide lessons where you could join one of the group sessions - these are for different levels so we would put you in with the beginners.

      Our working plan is for Shepherd (18) and I to travel together. He is interested in the 3 month course and will Stay in a dorm? Or do people like the teepees better? I plan to travel with him and stay at one of the cabins/ bungalows for about three weeks.

    • Mojosurf AustraliaOperatorWritten March 2023

      Start date in September is any Sunday. The full cost of the 3 month academy is $10,126 plus the cost of the ASI level qualifications is an additional $1000.
