Just incredible. Had a morning lesson with only 3 in our group. Throughout the land instruction and out on the water, Matt was an ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL teacher. He had me riding the first wave attempted right on into the shallows. Matt's got this fantastic ability to see exactly what went wrong when you've bailed, and give spot-on advice to make the next wave better. And after a good one, he's got just the right little extra thing for you to try so you keep building skills. He'll teach you how to pick the good ones, and when you're ready to do it, how to catch one unassisted. I can not believe how much I learned in only 2 hours. It's been 4 days since my lesson, and I can't stop thinking about it. One tiny little thing..... If you're picking out one if their sweet shirts in the shop after, pick a size up. Seems they're not made from pre-shrunk cotton, and I was crushed to take mine out of the laundry today to find it's now to small. Still love you guys so much. I'll be back to rent a board for sure 😎🤙

This is a great school for surfing. Everyone at Barrys are super friendly and experienced surfers. We had some prior experience of surfing and took six lessons. They quickly noticed our individual skill level and helped us progress a lot. I highly recommend taking lessons from these guys if you are starting surfing or just want to improve. Thanks for a great time guys! /Fred

If you are already a surfer or wanting to learn to surf Barry’s is the place to go. They will take you to the most idyllic spots to catch a wave. This was our fourth time surfing with Barry’s surf school and this time we brought our two children ages 12 and 10 and we all had an amazing time. Matt was an incredible instructor who was able to get us all catching our first waves within minutes he is patient and gives amazing instructions and feedback. Thanks to Matt we now have a family that surfs and are looking forward to our next visit.

I really enjoyed my session with Barry’s Surf Barbados Surf School. It’s been about 10 years since I’ve surfed regularly and it was a perfect way to reacquaint myself with the water and some beyond basics skills to improve my surfing and experience. Matt and (Josh?) were great instructors who effectively balanced teaching some brand new surfers as well a couple of us with more experience to ensure that everyone had a great, fulfilling experience. I felt like the instructors took the time to evaluate me in between helping new surfers with catching their first waves. I walked away with some great pointers to improve my surfing and really appreciated the opportunity to grow my skillset. I’d recommend it to anyone for their first time or anyone looking to shake the rust off and get back into the pastime that we love. 🤙🏽
