What should I know before renting a surfboard in the Shire?

It's great to check the surf conditions before you head out! Local surf schools and shops often have updated info on the best times to catch waves. • Make sure to bring your ID and possibly a deposit, as many rental places require these for board rentals. • If you're a beginner, consider renting from a shop that offers lessons as well. Many places, like Cronulla Surf School, provide a package deal which is a fantastic way to get started safely. • Don't forget the essentials! Sunscreen, a hat, and maybe a wetsuit, especially in cooler months, will keep you comfortable while you're out on the water.
