Surf lessons in Siargao, with local coaches

Francis, Michael and Glenn teach on the breaks around General Luna. Come if you have never stood on a board, or come after years of surfing. Either way you get a personal coach in the water, and he picks the spot for your level and that day's ocean.

How it works

  1. Message on WhatsApp

    The button opens a ready-made message to Michael. Then tell him the day, the time and your level.

  2. Your coach picks the spot

    Based on your level, the tide and the wind that morning. He tells you where to meet.

  3. Two hours in the water

    Beginners work on the first pop-up. Surfers who already ride work on timing and wave choice.

  4. Good-wave days

    You take the boat to a spot further out. That's another ₱300, and on those days it is worth it.

Where we surf

There is no single beach. General Luna has a lot of breaks, and your coach chooses by your level and the day's conditions.

Every spot, by level

Questions people ask

All questions
How much is a surf lesson?

₱1,200 for a two-hour lesson, board included. On good-wave days you can take the boat to a spot further out, which is ₱300 more.

Do I need any experience?

No. Plenty of our students have never stood on a board. Your coach picks a spot with small waves and works with you on the first pop-up.

Where do the lessons happen?

On the breaks around General Luna. There's no single beach: your coach chooses by your level and that day's tide and wind, then messages you where to meet.

Can I learn at Cloud 9?

Not as a beginner. Since July 2025 there are no beginner lessons at Cloud 9, and shops there don't rent boards to beginners without an instructor. We teach beginners on softer breaks such as Jacking Horse.
