The Team

Gemma Harris has a father who makes surfboards for a living and a brother who is a pro surfer, so it is little wonder that she is an accomplished surfer herself. She has represented her native country (Wales!) numerous times and Great Britain in the World Surfing Games. Along with a degree in Surf Science from the University of Plymouth, there is little she doesn't know about the sport. She's an experienced surf coach and lifeguard, loves life and is always smiling.

Ben Ridding has an extensive background in water safety. He's an experienced head lifeguard on beaches in Cornwall and Australia, and has spent years surf coaching, lifeguarding, travelling and running surf camps in France and Morocco.

With this pair you know you'll be in safe hands. Their informal professional approach make them the perfect hosts for a weekend away.
