Odysea Surf School in Carolina Beach, North Carolina

“What an incredible experience! I partnered with Kevin and Odysea to create a surfing experience for my yoga students, and they did the best job. All of the teachers involved did a great job keeping us calm, cool and confident in the water despite the fact that we were all brand new to surfing. These guys are fun and unpretentious, but clearly take their teaching seriously. I felt safe and courageous under their guida”

“I cannot say enough amazing things about Odysea surf school. I spent all summer surfing with Kevin and his staff and had the best time of my life. Not only did they turn me into a surfer, but spent countless hours building my confidence and just being great guys. I will be back next summer for more lessons to improve upon my surfing, but a huge thank you to Kevin, Eric, Jacob, Steve, Brian, and everyone else. You guy”

“Odysea is great! I've taken a week of surf lessons and have come back 3 years and counting for a refresher lesson, a little SUP and to rent boards. Kevin and all the instructors are great and so encouraging. And their involvment in the community is outstanding! I'm already looking forward to next year.”

“Great surf school! The instructors were very friendly and knowledgeable. They were great to work with and encouraging. I improved 110%. My sister and I are in our 20s so they work with all ages, not just kids. Had an awesome time.”

“Highly recommend. Just the nicest guys and so easy to work with. Professional, friendly, responsive, and got my kids up and riding the waves in no time! They LOVED it! First lesson for my girls and they were one on one with Kevin, the owner, and another instructor. Ask about their non profit, Ocean Cure. ud83cudf0au2764ufe0f”

“Never have surfed before, we hired Odysea for a 9am lesson for our kids. The instructors, Brian and Aaron, arrived early to unload and set up for a prompt 9am start. Before we knew it, our kids were standing up on their boards and surfing. Both guys worked patiently and tirelessly to help the kids paddle through the waves to get into the proper start area. They made full use of all of the 2 hour lesson. The kids love”

“Loved my lessons with Odysea!! With a physical disability I wasn't sure if I could surf or how safe it would be. These guys made me feel safe 100% of the time! I try to take lessons from them a few times a year and each time I get a great instructor and learn new things! BEST in the area and wouldnt have learned to surf without them!”

“Had a fantastic surf lesson from Odysea! They helped to calm my fears and I was standing up, riding the waves before I knew it. All of the instructors were friendly and professional. There were students of all ages learning along side of me.”
