Incredible experience! - Incredible experience! The knowledge and friendly staff helped my husband and I achieve success in surfing! From the dry ground demonstrations to the in water assistance, everything was way better than I could imagine! We were given booties and rash guards, which made a huge difference. We are both 55 and over, don't let your age stop you!

Surfing at 60 - David and his experienced crew made this a fun adventure. Come rested and prepared to paddle hard and get splashed around. Had a wonderful and exhausting time. With good memories. Was on my 60’s bucket list.

Give it a try while you’re on the island! - Surfing is a lot of fun, but also helps if you’ve got good cardio. If you don’t, you’ll still have fun, but you’ll be more tired. Go enjoy the waves.

The thing that left a bad taste in my mouth was that we had already given him a tip at the end of the lesson. An hour or so later The instructor texted my partner asking for more of a tip and providing his venmo details. Also note that the area is rocky unlike the northshore.
