Families and first-timers consistently praise the patience and enthusiasm of the instructors here, with Brandon, Logan, Josh, and Wyatt earning particular shoutouts. The surf lessons seem to be a real highlight, with multiple reviewers mentioning how quickly they got up on waves and how encouraging the teaching style is across the board. Parents especially appreciate watching their kids catch their first waves, and returning customers make this an annual tradition when visiting the area. Beyond surfing, the kayak and paddleboard tours through the salt marsh and inlet offer a completely different experience that's equally beloved. Guides share fascinating details about local ecosystems and wildlife, and the trips to places like Waites Island and Hogg Island feel authentic rather than touristy. The rental service is super convenient too, with free delivery and pickup right at the beach. Equipment is well-maintained, and the whole operation runs smoothly whether you're booking lessons or just need a foamie for the day. The friendly, laid-back vibe comes through in every review.
My daughter learned a lot! Thank you Wyatt. She can’t wait to learn more when we come back in June.
