Surfing is a must try experience for everyone. Newquay is the UK's Surf City, the Mecca for all things surf. Newquay's surrounding beaches has some brilliant waves and beaches, from the big waves of the Cribbar to the small waves on Towan Beaches. Surfing lessons in Newquay are great as we can choose a beach to suit your needs and surfing ability and ensure the waves are right for your progression.

Why Choose Vertical Descents?

Surfing is a sport dear to our hearts and one we have been involved in for a long time. We have the latest Foam Surfboards made by C-Skins which have revolutionised the learning process. No longer do you stand on a lump of foam and stand to the beach. These boards are the real deal, you can surf them to the beach and they are still soft to ensure you have a safe lesson. We provide wetsuits that keep you warm whatever the weather or time of year and our coaches are seasoned veteran surfers who have travelled the world for perfect waves.
