Fun time - My family and I had a great time. The staff was so helpful and we all managed to ride some waves and make some great memories! I would highly recommend this excursion. I would not recommend buying pictures. They were very pricey at $40 per person and you only get a couple of pictures.

Epic fun - A simply wonderful couple of hours. Shane has more energy than a box of frogs and is one of those rare people who encourages and supports yet pushes you too. I cannot imagine anyone else being better. There were three of us and Shane was towing us out like a human jet ski and pushing us on to waves. All beginners and all standing up like, well, not pros, but standing nonetheless. Pure joy. Thank you Shane!

Very satisfied and so glad we went - Took my 13yr old son who was dying to learn how to surf out. We had an awesome time. Shane and Captain Neil made it so easy to learn and have a great time. Highly recommend!!!

Amazing surfing experience! - I would give this 10 stars if I could! Shane and Neil were amazing- they made sure all 5 of us got up on the board (I was skeptical I could do it!) and their positive attitudes were contagious. We had so much fun!! The only downside was that our kids decided that this was the best thing we could do and it was our first day- it will be hard to top this ! There is an extra charge for photos and it’s worth every penny- definitely do it!!

Great first time surfing experience with Shane and Neil - Before we went on this surfing lesson, my wife was a bit under the weather and nervous as she is not a strong swimmer. However, the location was great for just about anybody. You can surf and literally stand up in the water if needed. The surfboard provided was very large and stable, great for beginners. I was able to stand up pretty much right away and had a great time. My wife fell a couple of times and got scared. However, our instructors Shane and Neil refused to give up and kept guiding her until she finally got that crazy good wave and rode the entire wave! They are very patient and very determined. You can tell that they thoroughly enjoy what they do. Communication with them starts the day before and they are very detailed with the meet up location. All equipment were provided for us and they even take pictures and videos for you while you surf (small charge). The weather that day was amazing and the waves were perfect, not too crazy and enough for us to ride. For a first time surfing, I never felt nervous about getting hurt or injured. It is a great workout as well. Money well spent!

You can do it! - If you think that you can't do it because of your age, don't let that stop you because the instructors are great and they help you get on the board, an unforgettable experience, a challenge and a dream come true! 🤙🏼

Awesome experience! - The instructors are very invested in making sure you have fun! Everyone in our group caught some waves including inexperienced swimmer like me (they provided me a life vest which helped a lot). The instructors are very friendly and easy to talk to, I really enjoyed learning surf from them. They also took us on a snorkeling adventure which was absolutely amazing. We saw some turtles and different kinds of fish. It was a very memorable experience indeed. Highly recommend this experience!

My family and I were... - My family and I were really disappointed with the experience. The lesson felt rushed, with very little time spent on teaching foundational skills. We were on the shore practicing for maybe five minutes before being told to paddle out into the ocean to catch waves—despite most of us not even having a chance to stand up on the board yet.
There was minimal instruction on how to actually catch waves, and it felt like we were just thrown into it without proper guidance.
To make matters worse, my brother got seasick during the lesson. Instead of assisting him back to shore, the instructors just told him to paddle himself back—a 15-minute distance, which is extremely difficult when you’re nauseous and actively throwing up.
