Learn to Surf on LBI!

Get the kids ocean ready as they learn the basics of surfing with our introductory 4 day camp. Students are guaranteed to stand up with our safe one on one instruction while in the water.

• Boys and girls ages 6-9 learn about safety, ocean awareness, paddling techniques, positioning, and surfing etiquette.
• This is our camp for first time surfers, absolute beginners eager to learn to surf in a fun environment with LBI’s longest running surf programs.
• Boys and Girls are grouped together for a week of beach fun with our coed team of enthusiastic coaches. Campers meet at our surf shop for a meet and greet and to get sized for wetsuits each day. Each day begins with some basic yoga for surfing stretches followed by the safety and new water skills of the day before we walk to the beach to test out those skills and get our campers water-ready! Monday and Tuesday students are introduced to ocean safety and how to manage their equipment so that riding waves and paddling out are done in a safe manner. An experienced lifeguard will visit the kids at the shop to talk about the importance of swimming techniques, rip currents, and water safety. An experienced rep from the Surfrider Foundation will speak to the campers about the protection and enjoyment of our beach and ocean.
• Wednesday and Thursday “We ride the waves!” Campers meet at the selected surf shop to get fitted for wetsuits and then head to the beach to meet their coaches.
• LBI Surfing coaches help students apply those skills to the ocean in our tested and proven model of surfing success!
• One on one instruction while in the water with fun beach games, bodyboarding, relay races, and much more!!
