"Riding a wave and learning to surf is one of the most fun and exciting experience you can have with nature. No matter what age, weight and ability, there is a wave out there for everyone!"

The Billabong Surf School (San Juan, La Union), established in 2003 by Filipino-Australian surfer Luke Landrigan, enjoys its reputation as the #1 surf school in the Philippines. Located within La Union’s famous San Juan Surf Resort (affectionately known to all as Surf Camp), Luke and The Billabong Surf School combine a fun and friendly environment, an easy-going lifestyle with the finest surf equipment and an internationally-accredited surf training program.

With Luke and his Billabong Surf School instructors, you’ll be learning the joys of surfing along softly-peeling waves and warm waters with your progress and safety always in mind. Champion surfer Luke Landrigan has trained his staff at the Billabong Surf School to give you the highest quality service and surf training.

Relax. Enjoy. Relish the surf lifestyle. You’re at the very hands of the best.

Why Choose Us?

Safety Standards

New surf schools are opening all the time. As there are no proper regulations on standards and safety for surf schools in the Philippines. What some claim may not be what they have. Many surf schools use hard surfboards that is dangerous for first timers. Some instructors can’t even swim!

Coaching Standards

Not all surf lessons are the same. Standards may vary. Most will guarantee you standing on your first lesson. If you want a little more than this, you should choose where you learn.

Learning to stand and knowing how to surf and understand what you do, are two different things. Many surf schools or board hire vendors on the beach will spend a few minutes showing you how to get up and it’s straight into the water, equipping you with very little understanding of the surf. Surfing is much more safe and fun if you understand what you do.

Facilities & Location

It’s always good to have nice atmosphere, setting and facilities. It can get extremely hot on the beach. After surfing you just might want to chill out & relax. If you are traveling with a family or partner who doesn’t want to surf, its good to know that they can relax at a comfortable place while you are out learning to surf.

Location of the surf school should also be close proximity to the beach you will learn, so you don’t have to walk for miles.

Quality soft boards are a must. Billabong Surf School uses Safe and Soft training Boards

Have A Good Surf!
