Fall just may be the best time to grab your family, friends, or partner and catch some waves in Malibu. The beach crowds are much smaller during this season, but the water is still warm and the vibes are still mellow. This means your group surf lessons will be a fun way to connect, relax, and let loose before the busy holiday season. Create some unforgettable memories with those who matter most.
Do you remember what it feels like to just enjoy life for a moment? How about the last time you felt truly connected with those around you—in the real, unplugged, human way? Do you remember the last time you spent outdoors just relaxing?
Life is always busy and always moving forward. The weight of responsibilities and booked calendars can make it feel as though you are carrying the world on your shoulders. Perhaps this is your reminder to make a change.
What if you could paddle out into the ocean with your favorite people, feeling the sunshine on your face as you laugh at your bestie who just wiped out trying to surf for the first time? For just a brief moment, the rest of the world can fade away as if you’re on a wellness retreat.
It may sound too good to be true, but it is more possible than you think. Gather your friends or your family and sign up for group surf lessons this fall.
Fall Surfing Hits Different
While summer may seem like the ideal season for surfing, it is actually fall that takes the cake. There is something about surfing during these months that just feels perfect. Summer crowds are beginning to dissipate, the waves become more gentle and beginner-friendly, and the water is still warm enough for comfort.
Let everyone move on to pumpkin spice lattes and harvest festivals, while you and your chosen group meet up to make the most of the beach in Malibu. Besides, it is easier to focus, laugh, and learn how to surf from the pros when the ocean feels like it is all yours.
All you have to decide is who you are going to invite to take part in your group surf lessons.
Surfing with Friends
Your friends are the peeps you go to when you need a break and just want to have some fun. And a group surf lesson is the perfect way to spend time together and learn something new. You can joke around, cheer each other on, and have a friendly competition to see who can pop up first. You can be at ease, without stress or judgment.
The consensus among our surf instructors is that friend groups have a certain energy when they are together in the water. They are each striving to catch their first wave—competing, yet encouraging, while laughing the whole day through. What a way to find a love of surfing!
Surfing for Couples
Are you hoping to impress someone? Need a unique idea for a date? Tired of the whole dinner and a movie routine? A couple’s surf lesson is the perfect way to connect. Consider it a shared adventure, something that you two can experience together that stands out from the norm. You can learn together, encourage each other, and even giggle at how your partner hits the water in a wipeout. It’s all about creating memories.
Over the years, we have spent plenty of time with couples, from those just trying to get to know one another to those celebrating decades of marriage. Honeymoons, anniversaries, birthdays, getaways, or just something to spice things up a bit—surfing can leave an impact.
Surfing With Family
Today, parents find it more and more challenging to pull kids and teens away from screens and other distractions so that they can be fully present. But surfing can do that. Mom and dad, kids, siblings—learning to surf is something everyone can do together that is fun, safe, and beginner-friendly.
You will learn everything you need to know to get into the water and surf the perfect wave. And it all starts with the basics. Expert instructors will tailor each session to the comfort level of the family, ensuring a good time.
Life’s demands and schedules can often leave families feeling distant. But a day spent on the beach and on the water can restore bonds and allow the family to feel closer.
How Well Do Group Surf Lessons Work?
Individual surf lessons may give you an ample amount of one-on-one training and attention, but a group surf lesson gives you this benefit, plus the support and encouragement of those who mean so much to you. What’s more, the instructors work hard to maintain the utmost safety so that you may relax, have fun, and progress as much as you can during the lesson.
Seeing your bestie catch a wave for the first time can cause cheers and joy that spreads like wildfire. Everyone gets energized and excited to catch a wave of their own, so the energy found in these sessions is next level.
Because these groups are small, you can still feel confident in receiving personalized attention. Skilled instructors will teach basics on the beach and then get in the water with you to teach you how to read the wind and waves, and how to perfect your balance and pop-up.
