Did Kayaking with bay of life team multiple times. Their instructor Mr. Thangamani was patient in explaining the safety procedure and guided us through out the kayaking. Definitely Recommended for Kayaking and Surfing.
I had an amazing experience surfing in the ocean with Bay of Life Surfing School! From the moment I arrived, the team made me feel comfortable and excited about trying something new. What really stood out was our trainer, Kavimani—he was patient, encouraging, and explained everything in such a simple way that even as a beginner, I felt confident getting on the board. He didn’t just teach the techniques; he made the whole session fun, interactive, and full of energy. Surfing in the open ocean was an unforgettable feeling—equal parts thrilling and calming—and Bay of Life created the perfect environment to enjoy it. Everything, from safety instructions to guidance in the water, was handled professionally yet with a friendly vibe that made the learning experience feel smooth. If you’ve ever thought about giving surfing a try, I’d recommend Bay of Life. Whether you’re a complete beginner or looking to improve your skills, their trainers and overall atmosphere make it the ideal place to start your surfing journey.
This was such a brilliant experience! Family of four including two teenagers booked the beginners surf Lesson. We had such fun and are so appreciative of the team that taught us! They were so kind and made this a wonderful experience with our children. None of us had done this before, and we all loved the time with Bay of Life Surf. We would highly recommend doing this when in the area.
I had such a great time during my kayak session! The instructor was really knowledgeable and explained everything clearly, while also being super friendly and approachable. The whole experience was fun, safe, and enjoyable from start to finish. Definitely recommend it to anyone looking to try kayaking!
I had a wonderful experience learning ocean swimming at Bay of Life. The program started with Amrita, who gave a very clear and insightful theoretical understanding of the ocean, its waves, and the possible perils one needs to be aware of. This really helped me build confidence before stepping into the water. Kavi, one of the instructors, then guided me in the ocean with practical lessons and valuable tips about open-water swimming. Even though I am an inexperienced open-water swimmer, I felt completely secure and free of worry in his company, even in deep waters. The changing facilities are well maintained, and it is evident that the entire Bay of Life team is deeply dedicated to their mission of training people in ocean sports — whether it’s swimming, surfing, kayaking, or more. I truly appreciate their professionalism, passion, and care, and I wish the team all the very best. Highly recommended for anyone looking to learn ocean swimming in a safe and supportive environment!
I had an amazing experience with Kamesh. He was very patient and instilled a lot of confidence in me to be able to stand up on the board and actually surf. We went in the afternoon which meant that the waves were stronger, but even then I was able to properly get on the board and surf with his guidance. Would 100% go here again.
The experience was great. The mentors are very professional. They instructed well and we got enough time to surf.
My son's and I went surfing today at The Bay of Life . This was our first experience. Our tutor Kamesh was amazing, a very patient man and motivating. I would highly recommend him 👍
