Surfing Lesson Chennai

Surfing Lesson Chennai

Learn to surf in one of few beaches of the east coast of India where surfing is possible. Our surfing lesson in Chennai is conducted at the Covelong Beach or Kovalam Beach, which is about 40 kilometres from the city centre and worth the travel if you love the sea and beach. This is a beach where fishermen still head off to the sea in the morning and the village here is sustained by the bounty from the sea. The old Dutch Fort, church and mosque are also places of interest here. Covelong is much quieter than the beaches in Chennai and ideal for surfing as a sport.
