Surf Camps
Our Surf Camps in Manhattan Beach provide a safe, fun and educational introduction to surfing and the ocean environment for boys and girls age 7 and up. Our Surf Camps are different from others in the way we pass on surfing and ocean knowledge. Our low ratio of 1 instructor to a max of 4 students guarantees surfing improvement, personal attention and, most importantly, safety. We pride ourselves on the quality of our instruction and the caliber of our instructors. All of Our Instructors are CPR & First-Aid Certified and are among the top surfers and watermen in the area, each with years of teaching experience and training. If you’re looking for a solid foundation in surfing, book a Surf Camp with us. We guarantee you’ll see results by the end of the week! Already have a solid foundation in surfing and want to take your surfing to the next level? Checkout our intermediate surf lessons.

Testimonials
But the reason i’m writing this is to mention one of you instructors Dana, who was able to do what nobody else could and that is get my daughter Veronica (Ronnie) back into the water to even try to surf again. Her fear was so big she started the day just siting on the beach refusing to even go in the water and by the time I picked her up she was bragging about how she had gone with Dana out far into the water and actually stood up and surfed! I really didn’t know if that was possible, but Dana had such a great way with her and really encouraged her in a way that brought her to the other side of her fear back into confidence and wanting to surf again 🙂
I thanked Dana but wanted to let you also know how much we appreciate him and what he did for Ronnie. Of course there are good surf instructors out there and some amazing surfers with great technique but it is rare to find someone so gifted at teaching others especially kids and having the human capacity to work with them past fears and resistance into having a positive experience. That goes beyond what most instructors are capable of and I think he really made an impact on Ronnie 🙂
All the best,
Thank you! I speak so highly of CampSurf to all our friends here in MB (both residents and “summer people”) and hope our referrals make their way to you. Wishing you a great year filled with great success. We will be in touch again next summer!
