Seth provided excellent surf lessons for our 15-year-old and 11-year-old. They both loved it and are eager to go again before we depart. Our 11-year-old was initially hesitant and scared but changed their mind. Thank you, Seth!
Jack, our instructor, was fantastic and the surf conditions were perfect for beginners. He had us riding several waves in no time, making this the best day of our trip.
My two sons, aged 11 and 14, took a surf lesson with Ben, and it turned out to be an incredible day! Ben was an outstanding instructor—kind, patient, and entertaining. His enthusiasm and ongoing encouragement made my boys feel at ease in the water. The waves at Ventura Beach were ideal for learning. Overall, it was a wonderful family experience. Thank you, Ben—you truly are amazing!
My 5-year-old and 9-year-old had a fantastic time surfing with this team! This is our second summer taking lessons, and we will exclusively book with them. They create a fun and safe environment for the kids. Special thanks to Tyler, who my 5-year-old enjoyed immensely - he's a wonderful instructor with a great personality!
We truly enjoyed our time with Adam and Aiden. My three boys and I were surfing right away. They provided an excellent overview and helped us find the perfect waves to catch consistently. Within 90 minutes, we were completely invested and returned the next day to surf independently thanks to their guidance. I highly recommend this experience.
Our first surfing experience was fantastic. Mondos Beach offered a great setting and the weather was lovely, despite a bit of wind. Surfing is challenging, but our instructors were patient and provided excellent guidance. We had an excellent time and would definitely do it again.
My friend and I enjoyed a fantastic surf lesson with Josh. Although we were both a bit anxious since it was our first time surfing, Josh's patience and support made it an enjoyable experience. We managed to stand up on the boards faster than we anticipated and left eager to return. I strongly recommend this lesson; we had a wonderful time!
We had a fantastic day on the water. Jack was friendly and knowledgeable, which enhanced our experience. By the end of the day, all four of us had caught several waves, making it a huge success. I would certainly do this again.
I had a surfing lesson with Noah, who was excellent—very patient, knowledgeable, and fun. He offered helpful advice on boards, suits, understanding surfing conditions, and other useful tips. I can't praise Santa Barbara Surf School enough; every lesson I've taken with them has been fantastic. I plan to return soon!
Katie taught my grandson and was incredibly patient and wonderful. He managed to ride all the way through his very first lesson at just sixteen years old. He really enjoyed it! Thank you, Katie!
