“We traveled from Orlando to Cocoa Beach and found the surf school right by the main beach entrance. Franky, the owner, was fantastic—friendly, patient, professional, and a lot of fun. We began with some warm-up stretches on the beach, followed by technique instruction, and then it was time to hit the water. Franky guided us through each wave, teaching us what to watch for and when to stand up for the best ride. A photographer was also present to capture our session, with no pressure to buy the photos, and she was very pleasant. You can rent boards for the day to keep practicing too. My partner caught on quickly, while I took a bit longer, but Franky was incredibly patient and supportive, which I really appreciated. Overall, we highly recommend this experience, especially Franky and his surf school, as he is loaded with knowledge and has global experience. Thank you for an excellent day!”— DancingFox3
