Get ready to ride the waves of the Pacific! No experience necessary—just bring your sense of adventure and love for the ocean. These surf lessons in San Francisco or Santa Cruz can be a day’s outing, though the two-day clinic is recommended for all those with a true desire to learn how to surf. And when it comes to finding the best instructors, there’s no better choice than Adventure Out—our premier surf guides, the only school in the Bay Area that’s NSSIA accredited! These instructors have spent years surfing and teaching on these beaches, and they know how to create a supportive and empowering environment for aspiring enthusiasts! Just remember: surfing is addictive, so once you try it, you’ll keep wanting to come back.
Regardless of what location you choose for your surf lessons—San Francisco or Santa Cruz—you will begin with a land-lesson to 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.
After a theory overview, you’ll move into the water and start out in shallow areas riding the whitewater until you’re comfortable with venturing further out. Please keep in mind that your instructors are all CPR/First-Aid and lifeguard certified!
You can expect approximately 1.5-2 hours of water time in a 2.5-hour lesson—the start of the class does have some “setup” time built-in to get people suited up and down on to the beach, and the land lesson can take about 30 minutes.
After surfing, you will get you out of the water in time to make it back to the parking lot by the “end time” of the class so that you have appropriate expectations of the class schedule.

Awesome Greece cruise with The Action Cruise. It was a fantastic week. Great staff, great food, great kiteboarding. The crew really went out of the way to make sure we were getting the best kiteboarding every day. I’ve already booked another cruise with The Action Cruise.

Amazing crew, spectacular spots (wave/flat/no one else in the water, incredible colors), awesome atmosphere, great boat, great food.. it’s such an experience. Great professionalism mixed with great people. It’s a tightly-run ship, Fede and Giulio know what they’re doing. I felt very safe kiting & sailing, including in rough sea. It’s a great opportunity to improve your kiting skills in different set-ups. And I had so much fun. And I ate so well thanks to Jordane. I come out of the cruise reloaded for months. Recommend 100% !!!

As a born-and-raised Chicagoan, I can say with no bias whatsoever that Chicago is one of the best cities in the world — with more access to nature than you might think. It’s full of hidden kayaking and canoeing gems, which I’ve spent years hunting down. From leisurely city paddles to secluded serene locations, there’s something for everyone.
