Surf and Skimboard Adventures with LBI Surfing in Surf City

Long Beach Island (LBI) stretches 18 miles along New Jersey’s Atlantic coast, presenting a dynamic playground for water sports lovers. At the heart of this oceanfront playground is Surf City, a community renowned for steady surf breaks and sandy shores that cater to surfers and skimboarders of all skill levels. LBI Surfing anchors itself as a key player in this local outdoor scene, offering tailored experiences that turn beach days into skill-building adventures.

LBI Surfing specializes in private and semi-private lessons across both North LBI (Surf City) and South LBI (Beach Haven), ensuring personalized instruction whether you’re catching your first wave or refining your skimboarding tricks. Their array of trips includes everything from private surf lessons to semi-private skimboarding sessions and comprehensive junior surf camps that develop confidence over four days. Rentals are thoughtfully curated to support each activity — from boards and wetsuits to beach chairs and umbrella setups — enabling visitors to focus fully on the water.

The location itself is key. Surf City’s beach break offers softer, more manageable waves, ideal for beginners and intermediates, while Beach Haven’s shores host more varied conditions perfect for advanced skill progression. LBI Surfing’s dual presence across the island means that participants get direct access to these contrasting environments that foster rapid learning and memorable ocean encounters.

Beyond instruction, this company’s commitment to the local coastal environment and community culture enhances the experience. They offer camps themed around the local skimboarding culture, like the “Step Into Liquid” camp, encouraging deep connection with the sport’s roots here. Rental conveniences like beach cruisers and kayaks extend the adventure beyond the surf zone. For anyone visiting LBI looking to engage with the ocean beyond casual beachgoing, LBI Surfing provides structured, vibrant avenues to deepen skills and enjoy the island’s natural maritime energy.
