About Charlies Surf School
Growing up in the beautiful seaside town of Robe, it was always going to be in my blood to love surfing.
However, it was only after working in surf camps in France, Portugal, and Fiji that it occurred to me that perhaps there must be a few people in my hometown of Robe that may like to learn to surf.
It began with teaching a few friends and stemming from that, a few of their friends' friends, and so on.
In 2009, I decided to put a whiteboard advertising surfing lessons out front of the local surf shop (the iconic 'Steve's Place').

From one summer to the next, surf classes have just become busier and busier.
I have a lot of local support to thank and the great local Robe community.
Also, fabulous word-of-mouth advertising spread the word of happy beach days.
Year after year, the next generation of surfers keep coming back — what I like to think of as The Charlie's Surf School extended family of the happy Robe Holiday-ers.
