About

Surf lessons are for all ages, all levels... first-time, beginners, and intermediate/advanced surfers. Our surf lessons are backed by over 18 years of teaching surfing at our local beaches. Our instructors are professionally trained to teach using a results oriented teaching method. We aren't just surfers, taking you in the water, we are teaching you how to become surfers. Real instructors, real lessons. Safety in the water is our #1 priority while learning how to ride waves and have fun!

Surf lessons include a surfboard, wetsuit, booties, and gloves. We will start with a safety talk and dry land training and then have water time in Indian Beach or surrounding areas. The surf lesson begins at your scheduled time and lasts for 2 hours, and then you have the option to return or extend rental to keep your board until 4:00pm. For other additional costs, you can add on yoga on the beach before the surf lesson.
