Big Wave Dave at Surf & Coffee - What Will Happen During My Lesson?

The rest of the time, about an hour to an hour and a half, is spent in the water learning to stand up and ride waves.
Once you stand up on your board for your first time, you will understand why surfers are so stoked all the time.

Great and patient instructors - We had four kids having a class and these guys proved to be a great team of instructors. The kids were happy after all. Thank you very much for your amazing work.

Amazing instructors! - A huge shout out to Aleka and Lee, our instructors, who were simply amazing! We both got up (everyone in our group did) and they were genuinely thrilled for us! Their knowledge and love of the water and waves is evident and they could read each of the five students and what each needed for support. Fabulous teachers! From the moment we arrived for the dry land training to the time out on the waves to the rejuvenating coffee at the cafe: we give ten stars out of five!

Making dreams come true - My 17 year old had a blast learning to surf with Alika. She was in a group lesson with a family of three and a couple. She was able to catch numerous waves during her lesson.
We even returned the next day and rented a board from Chanin. Thanks for the awesome service!!
