“Had a great time coming out on a Friday morning. Booking was super easy through the website and I had a great one on one lesson. After doing a quick pop up tutorial on the shore/making sure I knew how to pop up, we went out and caught more than a few waves for around 85 minutes (I got tired I'll admit).

“Lesson scheduled for 0900 this morning. Directions take you to an empty parking lot beside WARCOM. Was there early and found their abandoned bus up on the main road. Would not answer repeated calls or texts or even an email sent yesterday. Would not recommend.”

“Great time for everyone. My brother ~30s, niece 11 and nephew 9 did the 90 min beginner lesson. The instructors had them out on the water quickly. They all had so much fun and the beach area is great for watching them catch waves. Highly recommend!”

“What a great experience for the kids. They did a great time teaching the kids and then staying close to them in the ocean. The boys felt safe and comfortable to try and surf. They had one adult to two kids. The boys were so happy to learn and they were able to stand up on the board! The equipment was in good condition and the staff was focused on the kids. We will use them again!”

“Absolutely an amazing time! Our kids loved it! Jacobi was great and the kids were in the water quickly. Both were up riding in right away. It was an experience coming from Georgia, and it was worth every minute! Communication was excellent with Ryan. He let us know where to Uber to. Thank you for all the memories .”

“I had an amazing time during my private surfing session as a beginner. The instructor was incredibly helpful, guiding me through balancing in the first few attempts, and by the end, I was able to stand up on my own. Overall, it was a really fun experience!”
