Lessons & Associations
|
Lessons are a good idea, but can be hard to find. Call your
local surf shop to find out if there are instructors in
the area. Another option is to learn to surf while on vacation.
Florida and Hawaii have some great beaches to learn on.
Waikiki beach is a wonderful beach for a beginner. The waves
are small, the ride is long, and the bottom is fairly sandy.
