About SOUL Surf Club Dubai

SOUL Surf Club runs a Kids Surf Club in Dubai for children aged 5 to 17, grouped by age and ability. It works as a term-based programme that follows the school calendar - Term 1 of Season 4 started on Saturday 12 September 2026 - with one-hour coached club sessions on Fridays and Saturdays this term, plus extra sessions whenever there are waves. Sessions cover paddling, wave selection, turns and ocean safety, and on flat days the kids switch to land training, surf fitness and workshops on equipment care and reading swell. The coaches are certified lifeguards with ISA Level 1 Surf Coaching, ILS and first aid accreditation, led by founder and head coach Anthony Simpson. Children must be able to swim 25m unassisted. Packages run from 8 surf credits (AED 1,200) up to a 30-credit season pass (AED 3,300), and paid drop-in sessions let a child try it first. The club is listed on Google in Umm Suqeim 2, rated 4.5 from 34 reviews.

The activity

Surfing, explained

Surfing has kids paddling, balancing and riding whitewater or small waves on a board, building core strength, balance and real confidence in the sea. Coached sessions usually mix land practice - paddling and the pop-up to standing - with time in the water, and good clubs teach ocean safety alongside: reading waves, currents and knowing when to stay out. On flat days many clubs switch to land training, surf fitness or surf skate so progress keeps going. Because it happens in open water, children need to be confident swimmers first. It suits kids who already love the beach or pool and want an outdoor sport with a friendly club feel.

Who it's for

Children aged 5 to 17, from complete beginners to kids ready to take their surfing further. Groups are by age and ability where possible: Minis 5-7, Juniors 8-10, Inters 11-13 and Seniors 14-17. Every child must be water-safe and able to swim at least 25m unassisted. The club also runs surf and fitness sessions for adults, so parents can get involved too.

What to expect

Sessions last one hour and mix surf training in the water with skill work on paddling, wave selection, turns and ocean safety. When the sea is flat, the session moves to land-based training, surf fitness, water safety and workshops on equipment care, swell reading and ocean knowledge. To try before committing, the club offers paid drop-in sessions, subject to availability. A Soul Surf rash vest, surf bag and water bottle come with the separate AED 300 season registration package. Session times can shift with daylight, weather and group sizes, and once registered you join the club's WhatsApp group for weekly schedules and wave updates.
