Great experience - They provided everything we needed for first time surfing lessons. The instructor we had was knowledgeable and had a great attitude. We didn’t get the photo session in advance but they had some available to purchase after which was really nice. Would do this again and recommend to family/friends

Blast at Surf Camp and Lessons - My son and my girlfriend's son had a blast at the Pacific Surf Camp. They went for a week- my son (who has surfed before) was stand up surfing in a matter of minutes and then went to bigger, deeper waves by the end of the week. My girlfriend's son, who had never surfed before, was catching his own moderate waves and standing up on his own by the end of camp. Paige made sure both boys were really taken care of. (Even got one boy gluten free pizza for the end of camp and Schwag!). Danny got my boy out to the bigger waves too.
I took lessons first with Jeff then with Max. Jeff was an excellent instructor- keeping his directions simple to the point and positive. (The day before I floundered on a rental with no instruction). The next day, Jeff had me up and riding in less than 15 minutes. I went back for more instruction the following day with Max. He showed me there is more to learn- from balance on the board, to wave selection, to how to turn your board. If I had to do it again, I would sign up for a week's worth of lessons. This crew can get you up and surfing quickly.
We plan on going back next summer- and go for even bigger waves 🙂

Great Experience - Very good experience. The school was easy to find on the beach and the lesson got started right on time. My daughter and I had Russell as our instructor. He was very knowledgeable and basically stayed with my daughter the entire time to make sure she got the most attention.

We welcome surfers of all ages, from kids to adults. However, children should have basic swimming skills. Our instructors are adept at making lessons engaging and appropriate for all ages.
While our private lessons are designed for one-on-one instruction, we do offer semi-private and group lessons if you want to surf with friends or family members.
Early mornings are often ideal for surfing due to gentle waves and fewer crowds. However, we can accommodate lessons throughout the day based on your schedule and preference.
Safety is our priority. If conditions are not suitable, we will reschedule your lesson for a better time. Our team will stay in touch to keep you informed and ensure a great surfing experience.

Camps must be canceled or rescheduled 72 hours in advance. No refunds will be given once you are on the beach unless the lifeguards or instructors cancel the lesson.
