Great way to spend the day!
I did this surf lesson with my partner. Our instructor was super friendly and helpful. It was a small group so we got plenty of one on one time. Neither of us had ever surfed in our lives (my only experience was playing the Surfs Up game as a kid). It was difficult but so much fun! Thanks to the instructor, I was finally able to stand up on my third to last go. The wetsuits keep you nice and comfortable. Iād highly recommend this lesson!
