2-Hour Group Surf Lesson in Venice Beach
Fantastic surf experience!
My brother and I thoroughly enjoyed our surf lesson, with the other five members of our group (who were all really friendly too). We were all beginners, and both Kat and River were fantastic instructors. The setting was also spectacular - trying our best to learn to surf even a little bit, surrounded by the surfers of Santa Monica, was great fun!

Santa Monica to Malibu Surf Experience (Lunch Included)
The best thing to do in LA!
It was the highlight of my L.A. trip. Just an awesome day out for Young and young at heart. Beginner and more experienced. Adam is the best and great sandwich’s too!

Private Surf Lesson in Santa Monica Bay St
Great Experience with Sunrise
I booked this for me and my family when they were visiting and we had an absolute blast! The instructors were very professional and knew their stuff. They had me and my family standing on our boards within the first few waves!!
