    If you're looking for surf instructors who genuinely care about their students, this operation delivers something special. AC, the owner, gets consistent praise for his patience, enthusiasm, and ability to work with everyone from nervous beginners to excited kids. Reviewers mention instructors like Ivan, Evan, and Malachi too, all of whom seem to share that same encouraging, safety-focused approach. What stands out is how quickly people progress—complete beginners report standing up on their first or second attempt, which speaks to the quality of instruction and how well they break down the fundamentals. Families with young children especially appreciate the vibe here. Multiple parents mention how instructors made their kids feel confident and safe, even bringing birthday donuts and cheering for milestones. Beyond just teaching surfing mechanics, AC apparently shares knowledge about ocean conservation and marine life, turning lessons into something more meaningful. The instructors are flexible with weather too and go the extra mile with things like taking photos during your session and offering advice on local surf shops. The overwhelming sentiment is that this is more than just a lesson—it's a memorable experience that leaves people wanting to come back.

    What an awesome instructor who worked around the weather to make sure our son got to experience surfing before returning home. Yvonne was great and I highly recommend him for anyone who’s nervous or timid about surfing in the ocean waters.
