What’s The Difference Between Lessons?
A private lesson features 1-on-1 instruction. Semi-private lessons are somewhere between a private lesson and a group lesson. A group lesson features a 4-to-1 instructor ratio. Semi-private lessons feature a maximum of 3-to-1 student-to-instructor ratio.
Why Take Surf Lessons?
It’s remarkable the accelerated progression a proper surf lesson can give to a beginner compared to someone learning on his own. Semi-private lessons allow students to share the joy of learning to surf with a select group of friends or family while still getting personalized instruction.
**Additional Notes
- For 10 or more surfers, please call to make arrangements.
- Pricing includes a wetsuit and surfboard during the lesson.
