Escape for the weekend!

If you fancy getting into surfing but have no idea where to start or if you’re already a surfer and just want an easy way to get to the waves then check out www.bigfriday.com. The Big Friday concept means city folks can get out of the smoke and make the most of their weekend on the beach, breathing fresh clean air and catching waves.

The Big Friday team takes care of everything that you need - transport, beds, instructors, boards and wetsuits – and all you have to do is get yourself to Hammersmith to get on the funky Surf Bus.

Alternatively you can make your own travel arrangements and when you get here, the Big Friday crew will co-ordinate everything for you and provide local’s insight information so you discover all the best places to surf, shop and hang out.

Big Friday has weekend experiences for wannabe surfers of all levels and financial means. The company uses only the very best accommodation spots and surf & activity providers and there’s lots more to do if you, or any of your group, don’t fancy surfing.

If you’re looking for complete luxury then try the Surf Chic package in a stunning bed & breakfast and apartment in Trevone, Cornwall, with Reiki massages and champagne breakfasts on request and Rick Stein’s restaurants in nearby Padstow.

For larger groups who may be skiers or boarders, The Surf Chalet offers a full packed weekend with delicious breakfasts, Cornish afternoon teas and amazing three course dinners with wine.

And for those on a budget and up for surfing fun, the bright lights of Newquay and Big Friday’s surf lodges beckon with a perfect backdrop and include an activity schedule for HenSurf and Stagsurf weekends mixing surfing, clubbing and coasteering.

Whatever option suits you best, you can be sure that you’ll return to the city on a Sunday night with salt in your hair, sand between your toes and a big, contented smile on your face!
