Westward Waves Surf School

I have been surfing since the age of nine, first learning to surf here at Westward Ho! Almost 15 years ago. Since then surfing has been my biggest passion. During English summer time however I have always worked in surf schools in North Devon, working my way up from full time wetsuit washer at the age of 14 to fully a qualified RLLSS beach lifeguard and a BSA qualified surf coach. Entering into the 2019 season, this will be my 10th consecutive year working in surf schools.

Played the course today as a 4 ball , excellent condition,quirky, greens running approx 10 and true, well stocked pro shop with all the usual gear for hire. Good old fashioned clubhouse with additional decent kitchen facilities and menu. Great welcome from initial contact, sensible operation in place during COVID-19, if your in the area and want proper old fashioned Links golf as it should be, pay Royal North Devon a visit you won’t be disappointed.
