Common questions

Answers before the beach.

Do I need to know how to swim?
Yes — you should be comfortable in water over your head. We stay in chest-deep water for Try-It and Beginner, but conditions change and you should be able to swim back to shore without a board.
What do I bring?
Swimsuit under comfortable clothes, towel, and water. We provide everything else: board, wetsuit, booties, and rash guard. Bring a warm layer for after.
What if the surf is bad?
We'll reschedule for free. I won't take you out in conditions that aren't right for your level.
