Learn to Surf in 90 Minutes With Pro Coach

First-time surfers consistently rave about the instructors here, particularly Tommy, Travis, Chris, Mia, and Ryan. These coaches earn praise for being patient, encouraging, and skilled at breaking down surfing fundamentals on the beach before hitting the water. Multiple reviewers mention feeling comfortable and confident despite zero experience, with several booking additional sessions before even leaving the beach. The instruction quality stands out across the board. Instructors take time to teach wave reading, proper paddling technique, and ocean safety. Parents especially appreciate the attentiveness to kids, with one instructor even analyzing a young surfer's videos overnight to provide better feedback. Safety is clearly a priority, with one reviewer noting how Travis carefully selected appropriate waves for a young student during rough conditions. The vibe is consistently described as fun, chill, and approachable, making it ideal for beginners and families looking to catch their first waves in Laguna Beach.
