Situated in the vibrant coastal town of Carolina Beach, North Carolina, Tony Silvagni Surf School offers a distinctive outdoor experience known as Hoods. This adventure invites participants to immerse themselves directly in the dramatic coastal environment for durations ranging from a brisk 5-hour session up to a full week. What sets the Hoods experience apart is its exceptional flexibility and natural engagement—participants come equipped with minimal gear, only a towel and bathing suit, and are encouraged to embrace the outdoor elements, from refreshing dips in the coastal waters to extended exploration of local terrain.
