Bombora Surf School is a proudly Indigenous-owned and operated learnto-surf school located on the Gold Coast, Australia.

Rooted in deep cultural connection to land and sea, Bombora has built upon traditional knowledge with modern surf instruction to offer a truly unique and inclusive experience for all. Our mission is to share the power of surfing with everyone — from complete beginners and intermediate riders, and including those living with disabilities.

As champions of inclusive surf culture, we specialise in adaptive surf lessons, creating a safe, empowering environment where all abilities are not only welcomed but celebrated.

Whether chasing your first wave or building confidence in the ocean, Bombora is more than a surf school — it’s a community that respects the past, embraces the present, and inspires a stoke-filled future for all.

All-Abilities Adaptive Surf Lesson - Private lesson

Bombora Surf School’s All Abilities Adaptive Surf Lesson is designed for surfers with mobility or cognitive disabilities, or anyone requiring enhanced support to enjoy the ocean safely and confidently. These sessions provide an inclusive, empowering surfing experience delivered by experienced Surfing Australia–accredited coaches in a supportive and culturally grounded environment.

Each lesson is tailored to the individual needs, abilities and goals of the surfer. With a strong focus on safety, confidence-building and ocean awareness, Bombora’s adaptive lessons ensure every participant is supported to experience the joy of surfing at their own pace.

Lessons begin with a safety briefing, land-based warm-up and technique introduction, adapted to suit individual needs. In the water, surfers receive hands-on coaching with enhanced support, using adaptive equipment where required. Coaches work closely with participants to build comfort, confidence and connection with the ocean.

Adaptive equipment, including beach access wheels and adaptive soft surfboards, is available to support a wide range of physical and cognitive needs. Bombora’s coaching approach is grounded in Surfing Australia methodology and extends beyond standard surf lessons to include deeper ocean safety education.
