    If wake surfing is on your bucket list, this is a seriously solid place to start. The captains here, particularly Tess and Meagan, come up repeatedly in reviews for being patient, skilled, and genuinely fun to spend a day on the water with. Meagan in particular seems to have a gift for coaching, with multiple people going from complete beginners to surfing without a rope in a single session. The vibe across the board sounds relaxed and high-energy at the same time, good music, clean boat, and instructors who keep things encouraging without overloading you with instructions. Groups seem to have a great time here, whether it's a bachelorette crowd or a last-minute work outing. The near-perfect rating across hundreds of reviews is hard to argue with, and the consistency in what people love suggests this isn't just luck.

    Had such a great time learning to wake surf! Such a chill vibe with Annie she was amazing and a joy to learn from! Highly recommend using them if you’re in the area!
