Alysha agreed to take Hannah and a friend surfing and as I have wanted to try it. Since seeing all the surfers in Australia, I asked if I could also join them. Alysha agreed and it was arranged that we would go to Middleton Surfers beach.
This Saturday was the big day, an early start and an hour drive later Mark and I arrived.
Middleton Surfers Beach
Alysha arrived in Bri’s van (Her sister), which would make any keen surfer or Kayaker jealous. It has room for all her surfing gear and room for a bed.
Scott managed to persuade Mark to give surfing a go. Though I have to say it was more like Mark didn’t have a choice. He was thrown a wet suit and told to put it on. It wasn’t after about ten minutes of Mark struggling with it, I realised that he had never put on a wet suit before. Then Scott pointed out he was putting it on inside out (Classic). Well it got everyone laughing.
The group is ready.
After some time we were finally ready to get started and after a quick lesson on the sand. On how to stand up onto the board, we hit the water.
Even though we didn’t manage to stand, Mark and I had a brilliant time. We can’t wait to have another go.
Mark managed to get to his knees.

Hannah managed to saw us how a novice dose it.
Scott and Alysha then demonstrated how the props did it.

An awesome morning surfing was followed by a great meal in the corner café in Port Eilot (Coral Café), where we found fantastic salads and milk shakes.
