FAQ

Private surf lessons are one-on-one sessions with a dedicated surf instructor, designed to provide personalized instruction and guidance. During a private lesson, you’ll have the undivided attention of your instructor, who will work with you to develop a customized plan based on your skill level, goals, and learning style. Private lessons are a great option for anyone who wants to accelerate their learning and improve their surfing skills quickly. They’re also ideal for those who prefer a more individualized approach to learning or who may have specific areas they want to focus on. Private lessons can be scheduled at a time that’s convenient for you and can be tailored to your specific needs and goals. Whether you’re a complete beginner or an experienced surfer, our private lessons are a great way to take your surfing to the next level.

The benefit of taking a private surf lesson versus a group lesson is the level of individualized attention and personalized instruction you’ll receive. With a private lesson, you’ll have the undivided attention of your instructor, who can focus exclusively on your needs, abilities, and goals. This means that you’ll be able to progress at your own pace and receive targeted feedback and guidance on how to improve your technique. Additionally, private lessons can be tailored to your specific interests and can cover a wide range of topics, from basic fundamentals to advanced maneuvers. Group lessons, on the other hand, offer a fun and social learning environment, allowing you to learn alongside other surfers of a similar skill level. They can be a great way to meet new people and share the excitement of learning to surf together. Group lessons can also be more affordable, as the cost is shared among the participants. Ultimately, the choice between private and group lessons depends on your individual preferences and learning style. If you’re looking for personalized attention and rapid progress, a private lesson may be the best option for you. If you enjoy learning in a social environment and are looking for an affordable way to get started with surfing, a group lesson may be a better fit.

I apologize for the confusion earlier. Our private surf lessons are designed to provide personalized one-on-one instruction and are only available for one person at a time. However, we do offer semi-private and group lessons that are suitable for friends or family members who want to learn to surf together.

Our semi-private lessons are available for 2-3 people at a time, and our group lessons can accommodate up to 4-5 students. With both options, you’ll receive personalized instruction from one of our experienced surf instructors, who will tailor the lesson to your specific needs and abilities.

So to sum up, our private surf lessons are for one person, semi-private lessons are for 2-3 people, and group lessons are for 4-5 people. We offer a variety of lesson options to suit your needs and preferences, and we’re here to help you make the most of your time in the water.
