About

Private groups are a great choice for families, couples, or friends to enjoy surfing together. During private group lesson students will receive similar training to our individual private lessons. The focus will be on the fundamentals, as well as knowledge on surfer etiquette and ocean safety. Our lessons begin with a quick demonstration on the beach and practice time. Followed immediately by a long surf session in the waves were students put their beach practice to the test under instructor guidance and supervision. Afterward we will discuss successes and things to think about/work on before taking another lesson. Different discounts are offered based on the number of people in your party.

Included in every lesson

  • 2 hours guided and supervised instruction
  • Professional Grade / Top-of-the-Line 5/4mm wetsuits
  • Comfort-fit booties
  • Profession Grade surfboard and leash (wide variety to suit all experience levels)
  • Gloves and hoods available upon request
  • Life jackets for young children if requested
  • Sunscreen if you need it
  • An experience you will never forget!
