Private Surf Lesson - So glad I chose Golden Wave for a lesson. It was incredibly easy to book, competitively priced, and Alex, the instructor (and founder/owner) was a great teacher. I feel so much more confident getting up and staying up on the board after just one lesson.

14-year old daughter was up on her first wave! - Martin was the best instructor you could ask for. My 14-year-old daughter felt confident and excited about the whole experience. She actually was able to stand on her first wave! Thank you guys, looking forward to doing this again next year.

Attentive instructor for beginners - Martin was a great instructor. It wasn't a perfect day for beginners but with his guidance and support we had a good time and learned some basics to be able to stand and ride for a while.

TOP Lesson!!!!! - My Son had lesson with Martin. He never surfed before and in 2 hours he was able to start to surf. Martin has been patient, motivated and made the lesson super interesting and happy. He was constantly nearly present to my son and explained any step very carefully. I absolutely suggest this lesson. In addition when we called to have info, Alex was super kind and answered all our questions. It’s Top activity.

Joy of surfing stepping out of our comfort zone - I took my two adult kids for surfing lessons while visiting Venice Beach. It was amazing!!! We had so much fun trying to surf. Martin was our instructor and he taught all three of us how to stand up on our boards and catch a wave. He was an incredible teacher. This was the highlight of the week and will live on in our family vacation stories.

An all around very positive first experience! - It was a first lesson for a friend and I :: had the best time! Our surfing instructor Martin was friendly, encouraging, positive and had good pointers/ input when we'd, again-and-again, fall off the board! He even took some time to go back to shore mid water time to see how I could improve my feet placement. My friend had some movement restrictions due to past injurire's and Martin respected the fact, gave her space to rest & breathe and suggested some alternate moves to faciliate the whole popping-up-on-the-board business! I'd recommend this school and instructor (lovely guy, really!) any day; it was an all around very positive first experience!

Brilliant experience, great family activity - We had a fantastic time experiencing surfing for the first time. Ashamed to say that I was awful but that didn't curb my enjoyment (even when my wife and daughter seemed to be smashing it). Our instructor was super friendly, patient and tried his best to get us all up and surfing and as Meatloaf said, two out of three ain't bad 🤣 Would thoroughly recommend it to anyone visiting the area - definitely a highlight of our holiday.
