Our Surf Camps
Our Spring and Summer Surf Camp and California Surf School is a great way for kids and teens to learn ocean safety while having fun surfing!
Exclusively available at WAVES, our seasonal Surf Camps are perfect for kids and teens aged 5 to 17. We’ve been operating since 2002, and our intensive half-day or full-day surf school sessions help students build confidence and improve their skills quickly.
From kook to catching waves, bro’s on his way to shred city! 🌊🤙
Listen up, bro: you can't just paddle out once and expect to be shredding like a pro. It’s all about putting in the hours, catching wave after wave, till you’re practically part fish. The ocean rewards those who practice, so keep at it, and soon you’ll be riding the gnarl like a true wave warrior!
