Why Join Us? 

By choosing Bournemouth University you've moved to the sunny south coast, where the sea is at your doorstep... Our club is a community of sea enthusiasts that surf at the break of dawn, into the late afternoon and throughout the year! We travel, we seek adventure, we get stoked and we do that with amazing friends. 

AND NO SURF EXPERIENCE IS REQUIRED, WE WILL TEACH YOU!! 

BU Surf Club has a home at Bournemouth & Boscombe pier. We surf the breaks, we party on the shore and we get the best of coastal living. We offer beginner surf lessons with our team of BU surf instructors and whenever there is swell we are there! We also host mega events, socials and those much-needed wind down sessions, so there’s the right vibe for all of our members.
