First time surfing in Santa Monica and it couldn’t have gone better. Our instructor was from Hawaii.. super chill, encouraging, and made the whole thing feel easy. We booked online on Funsurfla website and the communication was super quick, which I loved. The spot in Santa Monica is perfect..:) easy to find, great waves for beginners, and just a fun vibe all around. Tip: don’t overthink it, just show up ready to get salty and have a laugh!!!!
Fantastic surf times!

We had a brilliant time on our two hour private lesson. Rafael was a fantastic instructor who explained everything clearly and got us in the water super quick, which was great. Three of our four managed to stand upright on our first ever lesson, which we think was a great testament to his teaching. Thanks Rafael and all at Fun Surf LA!
Fantastic instruction!

Jonathan was an incredible teacher, and finally helped me drop in and catch waves the real way! I have been trying to teach myself on a 6 foot short board for the last two years with minimal results and enjoyment. This one session straightened a lot of things out for me. Gotta do it!
Fun experience

Took a class with my son. Our trainer Jonathan was patient and helped us learn surfing. I even surfed a few waves. It was a wonderful experience.
