About

In this two hour lesson, groups of friends, family and/or couples get to learn to surf with their own private instructor!

All of our instructors are not only able surfers, but are also ISA (International Surfing Association) and USLA (U.S. Lifeguard Association) certified. Duke's Surf School provides all the necessary equipment for your surfing lesson: surf board with fins and leash, rash guard, and wax. The price per class includes this equipment. We do not provide but do recommend bringing reef shoes, as you will be surfing over reefs.

All surfing lessons include the following: • An introduction to the equipment and the ocean. Students learn how to recognize the correct atmospheric conditions for learning how to surf. Then they're introduced to the equipment: surfboard, leash, fins, and wax. • Surf awareness and surf safety. Here our instructors will teach you surf etiquette, emergency calls, and all the do's and don'ts of surfing. • An explanation and demonstration of exercises on the shores that will later be applied in the water. Here the students learn how to paddle, push through waves, and stand up on their board. • And of course, apply all this knowledge in the water!
