Beginner surfing with family

Anthony_M, Dec 2025
What a fun experience for the family it was me and my two boys (13 and 11). Ceasar was our coach for the time and he made it very easy for the three of us to all catch a lot of waves. As we were beginners being able to surf by the end made it a ton of fun. It did get busy by the time we ended. Also there were multiple people who just rented a surf board and were out there without a guide that we never saw even catch a wave. Highly recommend getting a coach.

Great Company

Had some confusion about the meeting place but the team and communication skills were great. We ultimately missed our lesson but made it to the beach to go out on our own. The instructors seemed enthusiastic and it looked like pretty much everyone caught a wave or two.

Bravo!!!

Instructor was awesome!! Waves were fantastic. Customer service was great!! We got lost and they directed us to their shop.
