What To Expect

HAVE FUN SURFING!

9 am is our "default" start time. Your Start time may be adjusted depending on conditions. We will send you a text with details at least 24 hours in advance.

Surfing is great fun and a challenging experience for your spirit, mind, and body. Our professional Instructors will help you reach your goals faster. We assume you want to:

STAND UP
STAY UP
Ride Waves!

When you book a surfing lesson with teachers that actually know the million little things that have to come together for success. Three things will happen:

Frustration will decrease
Enjoyment, fun, and smiles will increase
You will ride more waves
Your family will be safer

You will learn how to airplane, paddle, be safe, and 3 techniques to stand up. You will fail, fail and fail, then boom you’re surfing. Two thumbs up while standing on your board, your smile and my logo make great pictures.

You will get the attention you deserve in our small classes of 6 or fewer. If your group is larger than six, we can figure it out. Your booking is 100% refundable up to 24 hours before the start. If we must cancel for any reason you will receive a 100% refund. Text me when you book or have any questions.

Frequently Asked Questions

(8)

Q: Will I get seasick on Surfing Experience and Lessons?

A: If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy. Read more Feb 2023

Sorting, ranking, and search results

Activity name

Cool Destinations wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That's why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Cool Destinations over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
