Common questions about this trip

• I've literally never surfed — am I going to embarrass myself?

  Nope. Mojo's whole business is teaching first-timers. The 'stand up guarantee' isn't marketing — it's their actual standard. You'll spend 30 min on the sand learning the pop-up, then in the water with chest-deep waves perfect for learners. By the end of the hour you'll be standing on at least one wave.

• Why not just learn on Main Beach in Byron?

  Main Beach gets crowded and the breaks can be rough. Mojo drives you 20-30 min south to Lennox or Ballina where the waves are gentler and there's space to fall without taking out a yoga teacher.

• What if it's flat?

  Mojo runs every day — they pick the beach based on conditions. Genuinely flat days are rare on this coast. If it's unsafe, they reschedule free of charge.
