Furthermore, we are part of Surfing Queensland Surf Schools. ##Coolangatta Surf Lessons are very close to the Coolangatta Airport and not far from any accommodation places in Coolangatta. Coolangatta Beach is one of the safest beaches on the Gold Coast because it is a sheltered beach. Many of the other beaches on the Gold Coast are open to the main swell and wind. They can get large waves with strong currents and can consequently be quite dangerous. The predominant strong wind and swell on the Gold Coast comes from the South East. The point at Snapper Rocks shelters Coolangatta Beach from these dangers and as a result it is usually very safe. We park our van in the car park not far from the Tweed Heads Coolangatta Surf Club (which has a restaurant upstairs) and accross the road from the Rip Curl surf shop. Car parking can be busy, so we recommend that you walk from your accommodation and avoid car park rage. It is only a short walk from all the main Coolangatta accommodation places. We carry out our lessons close to the shore, in waist deep water, to keep it safe, while the competition and experienced surfers go out deeper and catch the waves coming off the point.
