Surfing lessons begin with instructions about water safety and last about an hour. All fees include board and wet suit rentals. Individual lessons cost $50, and surf camp runs about $25 per student. Although a surf board acts as a life preserver, tides and currents can be tricky. Beginners are encouraged to start slowly and to avoid putting themselves into conditions beyond their experience.
