Learn to surf in world famous Cocoa Beach! First, we start with a few surf specific stretches. Then, we do a quick yet though land tutorial covering everything from water safety to technique. Then, we hit the water the remainder of the time! The instructor pushes you into waves until you master the basics.

The site said it was open so we booked, when I got there he was in the water doing a lesson, then when he was done told me that he was done for the day and the site should t have let me book. While my 6 year old stood there having waited all day, he told me if I cared so much I should have booked sooner… even though I booked and paid here. Eventually after me begging, offering to sit and watch his beach chair business, and pleading in tears, his friend offered to do the lesson. He was our savior! But I would never book with this or big kahuna again, they are the same company and he doesn’t honor the 3rd party bookings, and doesn’t care about the client. It was a horrific experience that should not have happened, and the only redemption was that his friend happened to be there and saved the day! But be warned - do NOT book here! He doesn’t honor the third party booking agencies and has no qualms about telling you it’s somehow your fault and should have known he was booked. Heed this warning and find a different company!!!!!!!!

I loved this experience! Two of my kids (16 & 7) were riding the waves like a pro after their first lesson!

Wow! We had a fantastic experience. Taylor, our teacher, was awesome! He guided us-a nervous older mom (54 yrs. old) and son (12 yrs. old) for our first ever surfing experience. Taylor listened to what we wanted and made us feel safe and comfortable in the water. We couldn't have asked for a better experience.

Francesco & Taylor were the greatest guys! Great communication and Taylor was a fantastic teacher giving several options to mastering the pop-up which really helped 58 y/o me get it! My 20 y/o son was up & running right away and had a blast. Super laid-back, spent extra time with us and just a couple of kind people who love what they do. One of my best experiences ever!

Frankie is reasonably and flexible. His trainer, Brian did a great job for our lessons. Stand up paddle board is a nice backup to the regular board. It helps to lean pop ups.

My son and I (with zero experience) did a 1 hour lesson and had so much fun! The instructor Taylor helped us both feel confident as soon as we got in the water, and he was great with my 7 year old. Highly recommend!

Communication with Frankie was great. He was encouraging and patient and both my husband and I were able to get up on the board. We had a great time; would recommend!

Linnea was awesome with my kid and we both had a blast. 10/10 would recommend. The waves were great for first timers here as well.
