Learn to Surf
Whether you have never surfed before and always dreamed of learning or you just want to improve your skills, our surf instructors will help you reach your goals. Surf lessons begin on the beach. You will be taught water safety, paddling techniques and surf etiquette. Instructors will be by your side until you stand up on your first wave. Instructors have several years of surfing experience, lifeguard training, CPR training and lots of patience. Lessons are taught at nearby beaches with slow, rolling waves. If you are an advanced surfer, we can take you to several more challenging surf breaks.
Students will leave Kelea as competent surfers. Topics that
will be covered during surf lessons are water safety, surfing
etiquette and surfing techniques. A Professional photographer
will be on hand to capture all your surfing memories. *
Photo CD available at an extra cost.
