Come for the spaceships and stay for the waves

Located just south of Cape Canaveral and NASA’s John F. Kennedy Space Center is Cocoa Beach, sitting right in the middle of Florida’s Atlantic coast. The town is home to pro-surfers (Kelly Slater, anyone?) and the East Coast Surfing Hall of Fame. Its iconic Cocoa Beach Pier, originally Canaveral Pier, juts out 800’ into the Atlantic, offering food, drink, and a great view of the professional and new surfers duking it out on the waves day after day. It’s also home to the largest, but not the original, surf shop in the United States, Ron Jon. So whether its rockets or surf boards that grab your attention, at least you can get a bit of both (as well as some awesome surf lessons) on Cocoa Beach.

Itinerary

Get your surf on with a private lesson tailored to your ability. Spend the first thirty minutes getting to know your board before you hop in the water, or work on some techniques you’ve seen from the pros. This lesson includes all the necessary equipment.

Things to know

  • The peak surfing season is from August into mid-spring. You can pretty much surf year round, but June and July are definitely the calmest.

    • A typical two hour lesson involves familiarizing yourself with your board on the beach, and then practicing what you learned in the ocean.
    • If you know someone who is interested in a surf summer camp, the schedule would be something like this:
      • 9:00am – Indoor morning lesson involving detailed surf knowledge
      • 10:00am – Hit the waves and get in some serious surfing time
      • 12:00pm – Lunch! All campers get a school-provided boxed lunch
      • 1:00pm – More surfing anyone? Two more hours in the water
      • 3:00pm – That’s it! Time for pick-up
  • Chances are pretty good inclement weather won’t get in the way of your surfing holiday. Remember that as quickly as a storm rolls it, it’ll often roll out. Be sure to ask your provider for more details.

  • Group sizes are usually between 1 – 4 people with one instructor. Also, remember that the costs decrease as the group grows, so it’s the perfect opportunity to surf with friends and family.

  • Fly into either Melbourne International Airport (MLB) or Orlando International Airport (MCO).

  • Day Trips Cancellations
    Fully refundable within the initial 48 hours from booking, unless the trip date is less than 7 days from the time of the booking.
