Work one-on-one with a surf instructor and build skills in 2 hours
2 hours
Surfboard, wetsuit, leash
Train one-on-one with a surf instructor and focus on the skills you want to improve. Your 2-hour lesson is tailored to your pace, with time on land and in the water.
Instructor gratuity is not included; clarify the expected amount with Greetwell before booking.
In difficult or hazardous conditions (storm, pollution, beach closure), the instructor may cancel; you can get a refund.
Wear swimwear (you can arrive with your swimsuit on under dry clothes). Bring sunscreen, a towel, and drinking water.
Arrive at least 15 minutes before your lesson time so you can get suited up and start on time.
Plan for about 15–20 minutes of instruction on land, about 70–90 minutes in the water, and time on both ends for suiting up and taking the wetsuit off.

Jonny and his team have created something special here in Pismo Beach. First-timers consistently rave about getting up on their boards during their very first session, which speaks volumes about the instructors' teaching abilities. The vibe is relaxed and encouraging, with coaches like Josh, Tyler, Ryley, Shane, and Molly getting specific praise for being supportive, down-to-earth, and genuinely passionate about surfing. Families love the multi-day packages, and it's common to see groups of varying skill levels all getting personalized attention during the same session. What really stands out beyond the solid instruction is the welcoming atmosphere. Students mention grabbing burgers with instructors after lessons and feeling like part of the crew rather than just customers. The flexibility and kindness shine through too, with multiple reviewers noting helpful accommodations when unexpected situations arose. Whether you're testing the waters with a single morning session or committing to the three-day package, expect to leave exhausted, maybe a bit sore, but completely hooked on the sport.
Awesome experience catching the AM sesh with Johnny and Molly. Good vibes with great instruction. We ‘leveled up’ boards by the time we finished our lesson and went back to catch some more waves. Definitely recommend!
