Unlike most surf schools we do not ask 20 people to show up for lessons at the same time and put them all in the water together with 5 instructors. For your safety our class size is limited to 4 students at a time in the same location.

We generally meet in Carmel near the beach for lessons. If the waves in Carmel are too small we go to Asilomar State Beach in Pacific Grove.
-
If the waves in Carmel are too big we go to Del Monte Beach off Casa Verde St.
-
If the waves are too big at Del Monte Beach we go to the Monterey Municipal Wharf off Figuroa St.
-
All lessons last a minimum of 2 hours.
-
All lessons include a surfboard and wetsuit

We teach surfing every day

You must sign up online for insurance reasons Availability Calendar is shown as you sign up. If a desired class is full call me and I will open another one.

Lesson times are 10 am and 1 pm.

4 pm lessons are sometimes added in July and August to meet demand.

Advance lessons are by appointment when waves are optimal in size and shape.

For safety reasons we do not decide the lesson location until the night before the lesson

If you call we are usually in the water so leave a message and we will call you back within 2 hours

It’s not how well you can swim, it’s how long you can hold your breath! Most lessons are held in knee to waist deep water

Been surfing in Monterey since 1961 and I’ve never seen a SHARK 🙂
