SURF CAMP
Our Surf Camps are offered to children between the ages of 7-17 with little or no experience necessary. Your child will have his or her own tailored surf instruction according to their age group and level of experience on and off the water by one of our highly experienced surf instructors. Each instructor is assigned a group of maximum 4 students.
For the ones who choose the 5-day Surf Camp, on Friday, we end the week with some friendly competition into the mix so that the students are able to show off what they’ve learned.

You can do it! - Russel and Patrick were awesome. There was five of us and our ages ranged from 5-62yrs. Safety was important which we appreciated. Our 5yr old was scared of the ocean and absolutely loves it now. Highly recommend.

Great experience for our grandaughter. - We signed our 11 year old grandaughter up for a surf lesson while visiting San Diego. She's had surfing lessons for the last 2 or 3 summers and this was her chance to surf in Southern California. Her instructor was wonderful. It was obvious that he was accessing her ability and gradually taking her out into deeper water and larger waves which she was able to handle. We were really pleased and she was very happy with her experience. I highly recommend this company.

First time surfers ... and it was great! - This was our fist time surfing, and we had a great time. Berkley was an excellent instructor who was really helpful. I was a bit nervous, and she made the whole experience fun and safe. I hope we get back to San Diego to do it again!
