We will walk you through all the basics to get you started and catching waves! Participants will learn about ocean awareness, wave breaks, ocean conditions, safety in and out of the water, wave etiquette, paddling, push up and pop up techniques, as well as riding waves and balancing.

Q&A

Q: What's the age limit for the beginner surfing class at Pacifica Beach?

A: The beginner surfing class at Pacifica Beach is generally designed for ages 12 and up. However, younger kids who are comfortable in the water and have a parent or guardian with them can often join as well. Just make sure to check with Adventure Out LLC when you book to confirm any specific age requirements or recommendations!

Q: What should I wear for the beginner surfing session?

A: It's best to wear a swimsuit, and if it's chilly, a wetsuit is recommended, but they do provide gear for you! Bring a towel, sunscreen, and maybe a light jacket for after. Dress comfortably so you can move! Just remember that you'll get wet, so don't wear anything too fancy.

Q: Can I reschedule if the weather is bad?

A: Yes, you can reschedule if the weather's looking rough. Adventure Out LLC is pretty flexible with that stuff. Just make sure you give them a call as soon as you know you'll need to change your plans. They're super accommodating and want everyone to have a good experience!

Thinking about gifting a beginner surfing class at Pacifica Beach!

I wanna buy a surfing experience for my boyfriend's birthday, and this Beginner Surfing class looks perfect! He’s never surfed before but loves the beach. I saw that they provide all the gear and the instruction seems really thorough. Has anyone done this? Any tips or advice before I buy it?

Just came back from the beginner surfing class at Pacifica Beach!

Oh man, yesterday was epic! I took the beginner surfing class at Pacifica Beach with Adventure Out. The instructors made it so easy to learn the basics. They provided all the gear and even helped with paddling and popping up on the board. It was a little challenging, but honestly, so much fun! I fell a lot, but catching those small waves felt amazing. Can’t wait to go again!
