    Eddie was awesome! ...

    Eddie was awesome! Highly recommend and loved they offer professional photos to purchase as my phone camera couldn’t get any clear, close up photos. Will take lessons again at our next visit.

    Awesome experience …. Bucket list item checked!

    We had a great time learning to surf in our 50s! Eddie was a fantastic trainer with an incredible attitude that made learning (and often failing) an absolute blast! The team was just as fun and extremely helpful. We can’t recommend them enough. If you’re even questioning whether you should try this just do it. You won’t regret it..

    Friendly, laid back intro to surfing

    Adriano_C, Jul 2024
    Fantastic 2 hours with Eddie and his colleague Sam. We went with our three kids (11, 11, 14). They had all the gear including rash-guards and had us up on boards on the water in no time. A photographer was in the water taking pictures (I think she is separate from the the surf school) but pairs up with them to get the pics you want for an extra cost (but again very relaxed, no pressure to purchase). Overall, fun, easy and very relaxed way of an introduction into the intimating sport of Surfing. Would highly recommend. Eddie seemed to work well with young kids as well. I believe he has a genuine interest in trying to get people interested and excited about his passion for surfing, and understands that a major barrier is the intimidation that this first lesson/experience entails for the contemplator. Him and his team work hard to make it relaxed, easy and judgement-free!
