Our CPR-certified surf instructors will tailor the lesson to your ability and comfort level while keeping safety as the top priority. The instructors excel at teaching individuals of all skill levels everything they need to know to improve their surfing and enjoy their time out in the water!

    Our fun-loving instructors will meet you at the beach with wetsuits and surfboards. You'll start out with some basic footwork lessons on the beach and then try your new skills in the water. The instructor will be with you every step of the way - helping you paddle out, catch waves, and improve your technique.

    Surfing is an awesome physical sport and one of the best ways to spend time outside. Everyone should experience the incredible feeling of catching a wave! Before you know it, surfing might just be your new favorite pastime!

    (8)

    Q: Will I get seasick on 2-Hour Private Surf Lesson in Manhattan Beach?

    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
