Lesson Overview
Duration: 1.5–2 hours
Format: Private 1:1 surf instruction

Why Choose This Private Lesson
This session is ideal if you’re stepping on a board for the first time or you’ve surfed before and want focused, individualized feedback. With a dedicated instructor, you’ll learn faster, build confidence sooner, and avoid the trial-and-error that slows most self-taught surfers down. It’s also a strong option for intermediate surfers who want to refine technique, improve wave selection, and deepen ocean awareness.

Your lesson is led by a Red Cross CPR-certified surf professional with extensive North Shore experience, keeping the session safe, supportive, and genuinely fun from start to finish.

What’s Included
You’ll start with a short beach-based lesson covering fundamentals and safety, then move into the water for hands-on coaching. Instruction includes how to read waves, understand conditions, and follow proper surf etiquette—especially when the lineup is busy. After that, it’s all about maximizing wave time and getting you riding.

Included gear:
Rash guard
Leash
Soft-top or epoxy surfboard (chosen for your comfort and conditions)

Short performance boards are available by special request.

Highlights
Many seasonal surf spots also double as great snorkeling areas, so ocean wildlife sightings can be part of the experience. Green sea turtles are commonly seen, and depending on the season you may also spot humpback whales (including mothers and calves), spinner dolphins, reef fish, and sometimes manta rays.

Satisfaction Promise
If you feel the lesson or service didn’t deliver, a refund is available—simple, no arguments.
