Top surf lessons with Jaye - Learning to surf with Jaye was a good experience. He knows his stuff, and he effectively taught me how to surf! His techniques and coaching after every wave helped me get better as the morning went on. The waves were frequent and easy to catch. The only challenge sometimes was the spacing between other surfers, but we were able to manage through it.

Wether wiping out to riding all the was. It was a blast of fun. - My kids had a blast watching dear old dad wipe out every other pass. Ivan was an awesome instructor and was very patient with the whole family as he taught us how to surf for the very first time. He made sure to get us on every wave possible and have the most fun we could have out in the surf. Definitely want to do a rematch with the kids in the future.

Amazing! - Amazing! My son (14 years old) and myself (47) took this lesson together. We had 4 other participants in our group (all kids). It was the day after we had to evacuate for a tsunami warning. The waves were amazing! Our instructors amazing! We had a brief safety and lesson on land (20 minutes tops) then we spent the rest of the time learning first hand which is how we learn best. Our instructor was awesome. We all got up quick and I can’t even count how many times we tried. The photos were expensive $120 for two people! My son asked for another lesson as that was cheaper than the pictures. That was a no brainer. Tomorrow we will go back. My only negative is let people buy per picture from the gallery vs $120 for a pictures I don’t want.
