My son is brand new at surfing and needed some help. I am not one to go in the ocean so I got a lesson for my son for his birthday and we can't say good enough things about Tyler. We will definitely be getting more lessons and of course our board! Thank you! 🙏🏽

Duran and his team were simply amazing with my son, he had a one in a lifetime experience. The passion they put in teaching and sharing their skills with my son brought him to another level in just two weeks, he was enthusiastic every day to wake up early and go surfing. Cannot thank you guys enough for the wonderful experience.

We had a great time with North County Surf Academy. From start to finish, the whole experience was well done. We did a family lesson and all had a blast! Communication was solid, equipment was all in good condition, and Duran / Noah were great. Noah did a great job as an instructor, got us up to speed quickly, and into the waves. We all got to surf quite a few waves and enjoyed it so much. Looking forward to coming for another go around sometime soon. Thanks guys!!!

Duran and his amazing team of instructors created a created an unforgettable experience for my nephew Giorgio. I highly recommend Duran to anyone who is passionate about learning to surf or who wants to improve their skills. The dedication of the whole team brought his surfing skills to another level in just two weeks and he learned so much. I have to give a particular shout out to Tyler and Noah for their extra attention to Giorgio, he is over the moon about his San Diego surf summer!

We had the best lesson! We were an adult and 2 kids and the experience was amazing! They were very good at explaining what to do, practicing and getting out into the waves. Everyone was able to surf very quickly.
Noah and Duran were really knowledgeable, super nice and amazing at what they do.
I’d highly recommend adding the photo and video package to your lesson. They were super clear, amazing shots and videos. Definitely something for us to always remember!

Had a family surf lesson. So much fun. Our instructor, JB, was fantastic. He broke the movement down into parts and everyone was up in 10 minutes.

My son and I learned to surf for the first time. Really fun and easy experience. The waves were excellent. It was an incredibly easy and fun experience. Last wave of the day my son and I both got up on the same wave.

Duran was an excellent surf instructor! He got me out catching waves, learning some new skills, and tricks for paddling past the break. I would highly recommend to anyone looking to surf the Oceanside breaks with wetsuit & soft top board included !

Jorge was fantastic with the lesson for my son and me. He got a couple of Upstate New Yorkers who had never even swam in the Pacific standing up on boards and enjoying the waves (and realizing what great athletes surfers are). Highly recommend and appreciate.

With a last minute surf lessons Duran set up for my 3 grandkids (2 10 year olds and a 12 year old) with JB, and WOW what a great time they had!!! JB was so kind and patient with them on their first ever lesson. They can't wait for their next lesson. As a grandparent, watching them have the time of their life, made this day memorable. Best money spent ever. JB ..they think your the best guy.
Thank you!!! You made these Arizona kids comfortable and excited excited to come back.

My 13 year old and I had an amazing time surfing the party waves in Oceanside with North County Surf Academy. Our instructor was Duran for a 2-1 he was excellent highly recommend. The wetsuits were very comfy and great quality also. My 13 year was able to try out some 180s with Durans instruction.
