Prince Harry did this special thing with Prince Archie in California…

Prince Harry has been spotted teaching his son, Prince Archie, how to surf.

The father-of-two, wearing a black wetsuit and posing with his five-year-old son, has been spotted at a surf school in California in footage published online.

The pair were also joined by professional surfer Raimana Van Bastolaer and his son.

The professional surfer delighted Royal fans after sharing the adorable snaps on Instagram, capturing the post: “Don’t hate but be happy & keep smiling. Brother HARRY, Let’s go for 2025!”

One delighted Royal fan commented: “Prince Archie is going to be so tall!”

Whilst another who called the snaps “precious” thanked Raimana “for keeping them safe.”

In the snaps, Prince Harry looks ready to hit the waves, clutching a surfboard and wearing a wet suit, while his eldest son sits at the front of the jet ski, wearing a pale blue rash vest with his legs bare at the side.

The footage is believed to have been taken at a manmade wave centre in central California, owned by surfing star Kelly Slater.

Over the years the couple have been very careful not to issue many, if any, photographs of their young children for privacy reasons.

This is likely to have influenced which family picture Harry and Meghan opted to use in their “Happy Holidays” card released last month.

The image chosen shows just the backs of their children as they ran to greet their parents, with Lilibet wearing a white and blue dress and Archie in jeans and a jumper.

A source previously told PEOPLE: “Harry has been reluctant to show his children publicly, not out of a desire to hide them but to protect their privacy and safety from potential threats.

“He wants them to lead as normal a life as possible without the fear of kidnapping or harm.”
