Typical Lesson

We provide all the surf equipment needed. All you need is a towel, a swim suit and sun screen 'cause remember you are in the sunny southeast!!. Our scheduled open lessons take place at least once a day and below is the general format.

General format of the 10am lesson for example is:

Those that are taking part in the lesson will gather on the deck for a safety talk and introduction to your instructor.
