Catching your first waves and learning to surf at a young age can be an invaluable life experience.

These tandem-style lessons are something that we specialize in, and we will make sure that your little one has a positive, fun-filled experience that’s they’ll look forward to repeating. Just select the tandem kids option when you book for an additional $50 to have a surf instructor give your child their full attention for the entire the lesson.
