      Perfect day!
      My 3 sons - 19, 18, & 14 took a surf lesson from Chase and absolutely loved it! One of them was very hesitant to go, but Chase coaxed him in the kindest way. Truly a perfect day!

      Surf Lessons with Surfer Jeff
      We loved our experience with Surfer Jeff. He immediately made my boys, 12yrs and 9yrs, feel comfortable with his good sense of humor the minute he met them. He did an awesome job teaching them about safety and expectations before getting in the water. Surfer Jeff helped and encouraged them the whole time, giving them them constant praise and instruction. It was a cold day to go surfing but there were zero complaints!

      Surfing in Delmar
      I was a little nervous and anxious about surfing again. But our instructor David was awesome and so was the entire group of beginner surfers! I would definitely do this again and plan to do it in the near future.

      Great First Surfing Lesson with Al
      This was my first time learning how to surf and I had an amazing time! Al is a great instructor and really focuses on safety and making sure everyone learns in a safe and fun environment. I was in a group of 5 people but the lesson felt personal and Al kept giving me tips on what I can improve and I was able to stand on the board and ride a few waves. I want to thank Al for a great first lesson!

      Great Experience
      My teen daughter and her bestie had a wonderful experience with Antonio. He completely changed their idea of surfing and they can’t wait to get back in the water again.

      Surf lesson 1 review
      Amazing experience to take with friends and family. The instructor was very competent, nice and helped and followed you in everything. I went with my friends, it was just the three of us. They gave us all the equipment. At the beginning he explained to us the basic things on the beach, how to hold the table, the do's and don'ts for our safety. Then we went into the water and began to put into practice what he had explained to us. It was so fun, I will definitely continue with the lessons!

      Great first surf lesson
      We had a fantastic surf lesson. The instructor (I think it was Ben) was very safety focused, which was definitely a good thing as the waves were big for beginners! We managed to catch waves with some assistance and it was incredibly fun. We even saw a sea lion!

      Great, invaluable knowledge shared!
      Looking forward to the next adventure! My son and I had a great time learning these new skills together. Was kid and teen friendly. Instructor was on point. Great communicator, knowledgeable, and patient. I’m definitely signing up again to continue to hone these newly learned skills.

      Coach David is the best!
      I've used Coach David for several 1:1 and 2:1 private lessons so far and he is hands down the best surf instructor I have ever had (I've taken a total of ~3 lessons across Hawaii and Monterey). I learned SO much about oceanography and surfing technique in just my first 1:1 private lesson with him AND continue to learn so much even in my subsequent 2:1 private lessons with him where I've brought a friend who is brand new to surfing -- they all agree too! I highly recommend Adventure Out and especially Coach David (Pacifica / Linda Bar beach).

      Awesome surf sesh with Al!
      Honestly had a a blast! Flew in from Canada for a wedding and made sure to book a surf lesson at Pacifica beach. Al was amazing. Super chill, very friendly, professional and safe! He thought us how to fail safely! Which honestly, I’m going to use forever! Wish we had more time in the water but all in all, would recommend 100%. Been surfing lots of times but I learnt lots of new things that my gf and I will take with with us everywhere we surf around the world! Cheers !

      Great surf instructors and fun experience
      Chase was a great instructor. Knowledgeable, funny, and had a great attitude. He made sure everyone had the opportunity to catch waves and didn't miss out. The two day surf camp is great value for the money... highly recommend using adventure out for surf lessons in Santa Cruz.
