Our Beach - Martinique Beach - Nova Scotia's Best Surf Beach
Why Choose Halifax Surf School?
Best Surfing Spot
We have exclusive summertime access to Martinique Beach, which is Nova Scotia's longest sandy beach! This location is also the most consistent surf beach in the province. You can find a surfable wave at Martinique Beach more often than anywhere else in Nova Scotia. Martinique is locally known as Nova Scotia's best surf beach. We can surf here at all tides.
Best Prices
Value is important to Halifax Surf School. If you find a better price from a legitimate surf school in Nova Scotia, we will match it. Our lessons include the rental of your surfboard and wetsuit for the entire day. Our prices are flat rate, so you can stay for 1 hour or 4 hours and pay the same low price. You're free to surf until you're tired and maximize your wave count.
Best Attitude
We're a surf school for a reason. Our emphasis is on people that are new or emerging in the sport of surfing - not dealing with pros. There are no egos and attitudes with our staff. We want to encourage you to learn and to ask questions. If you're a little nervous, that's totally cool! We are here to help you with your surfing journey, no matter what your current level of experience.
