Linley Lewis

BSA accredited surf instructor, NARS Surf Coach Lifesaver

As a founding Director of Ticket to Ride, Linley has nurtured the business from the early stages. He has unparalleled experience in handling surf tours, having run trips for large groups to South Africa, Mozambique, Portugal and all over the UK, for the past five years.

He originally learnt to surf on his own Gap Year, and after falling in love with the sport became a qualified surf coach, and also boasts an impressive acumen of countries traveled to on the hunt for perfect waves.

When he's not running trips or touring the UK in the TTRide truck, he can be found preparing himself for his next Adventure or putting in the hours in the TTRide London HQ.
