Happy People
I had 3 thirteen year old boys and one eight year old have a great lesson from Van! They all had a blast and now want to grow up to be surfers. Office staff was very flexible with our last minute plans and overall it was a super positive experience. Highly recommend!!!

My 5 year old learned to surf in her first 30 minutes on a board. The staff was very attentive to all students and incredibly caring. We will be back next summer for our second round of Surf Camp! Stoked mom. It's worth the drive from Florida!
