Kids Clubs

High-energy courses for the next generation of surfers

Our popular kids club courses are often the highlight of our season and, due to high demand, we are now running extra courses throughout Spring and Summer. Our courses include 4 sessions of high energy fun packed activities guaranteed to keep your thrill-seeking little nippers smiling ear to ear.

We offer a choice of Two great courses to kick start the season, both courses have the same content and aims, all you need to do is pick a date and you can leave the rest to us.

The courses are intensive, fun and educational. Being a Surf Club our priority is surfing and catching lots of waves but when the sea is calm we adventure around the bay on our Stand Up Paddle Boards and our Super-size SUP which are not only great team work activities and a lot of fun but also help improve fitness and balance for when the waves return.

Building Skills & Water Confidence

Safety is paramount for every waterman and not only will our kids master how to surf, SUP and explore but will learn the importance of water safety, how to be aware of dangers and the rapidly changing conditions in the coastal environment. We will teach the kids all about the beach environment covering subjects such as:

  • Sea swimming and surf safety
  • Surf life saving
  • Rips and Tides
  • The Lifeguard and coastguard services
  • Swell and Wind
  • Pollution and keeping the beach clean
  • Coastal wildlife

In the space of 4 2.5 hour sessions you will see the kids thriving as their water confidence and skill levels grow rapidly! Our courses are a fantastic pathway to becoming an experienced surfer and many of our Juniors catch the surf bug and continue to progress to the next level of their surf journey.

We now offer a junior surf scheme ‘Grom Squad’ in association with ‘Surfing England’ which is a fantastic scheme through which the juniors receive a logbook and can complete levels 1-5 receiving certificates and badges for each level. Which can be requested during the course.

Requirements & Progression

These weeks are designed to be fun and informative. They allow us to inspire the next generation, passing on our water and beach experience to the surf dudes of tomorrow, thus giving them the perfect start to a fantastic new sport that could become a healthy pastime for life!

If conditions allow, we round the courses off with a Coasteering session which is a perfect way to finish off a great week with their new Surf buddies.

We supply all the equipment required all you need is swimwear and a towel.

All we request is that the juniors are aged 7-16 years old, are capable of swimming 25 meters unaided and that parents of under tens remain on site.

Due to high demand we now also run follow on ‘Super Grom’ progression courses for our returning juniors who want to continue surfing and improving throughout the year.

Please take a look at the course dates below and call us to secure your places, last year we ran to capacity so early booking is advised.

Tori

Manager & Head Surf Coach

Known as Secretspot’s “Mother Hen,” Tori truly lives and breathes surfing. With over 20 years of surf experience, 16 years coaching, and 12 years as part of the Secretspot family, she plays a central role in everything we do. Tori manages all activities across the surf school and leads our coaching programme as Head Surf Coach, with a particular passion for junior development and performance surfing.

She created and leads our SuperGroms junior progression programme, helping young surfers build strong foundations and progress with confidence. Tori also delivers our advanced lessons, using video analysis, performance drills, and tailored coaching to support surfers looking to take their skills to the next level. Alongside this, she works as a Surfing England Coach Trainer Assessor, delivering coach courses here at Cayton Bay, and volunteers as a Team England Junior Squad Coach, supporting the next generation of competitive surfers.

You’ll probably recognise Tori from our socials, where she provides daily video surf reports, keeping the local community up to date with conditions and surf forecasts. Away from the water, she’s deeply involved in the local surf scene as the founder and chair of Scarborough Boardriders Club CIC and is often behind the scenes organising local surf contests, events, and socials.

During the busy summer months, Tori can be found at Cayton Bay day in, day out, making sure the surf school runs smoothly. When winter rolls around, she heads off to enjoy some free surfing at favourite destinations such as El Salvador, Bali and Ireland, before returning refreshed and ready for another season.

Paul "Tomo"

Owner

The backbone of our business, Tomo has grown up surfing Scarborough and has dedicated his life to the surf industry in the North East. With deep local knowledge and decades of experience in the water, he represents everything our surf school stands for: authenticity, expertise, and a genuine passion for the coastline we call home.

In 2008, Tomo took over the surf school from Ross and brought it together with Secretspot Surf Shop, established in 1989. As one of the oldest surf shops in the UK—and the largest in the North East—Secretspot has long been at the heart of the local surf community. Combining the two businesses was a natural progression, allowing Tomo to carry forward a shared ethos built on local knowledge, surf culture, and a lifelong love of Cayton Bay.

The philosophy has always been simple: run by surfers, for surfers. That means providing the best possible equipment, honest advice, and coaching rooted in real experience—whether you’re standing on a board for the first time or looking to progress your skills.

Known affectionately as our “Chief of Coasteering,” Tomo grew up exploring every nook and cranny of the East Coast. That lifelong familiarity with the coastline led him to become a trained coasteering instructor and to introduce coasteering to the Yorkshire Coast. Over the years, he has personally developed and led thousands of coasteering sessions, continually refining them to create the safe, professional, and unforgettable experiences we offer today.

Tomo’s depth of experience, commitment to safety, and passion for sharing the coastline are the foundation of everything we do.
