Private Surf Lessons

Available year-round, we offer one-hour and one-and-a-half-hour private surf lessons for adults and children aged 5+. Our private surf lessons are for one to eight people, so you can surf with your family and friends. Have a larger group? We also offer group surf lessons for nine people or more.

Safety is our primary concern, which is why we ensure classes are small enough for teachers to provide quality instruction and one-on-one time with each student.

Class fees include all the equipment you’ll need (like a surfboard and wetsuit). While summer surf camp is in session, we’ll let you use the equipment all day long which means you can stay and enjoy the beauty of Zuma Beach while you practice the skills you’ve learned in class.

Tom runs a truly amazing program!! We used Makos for private surf lessons when we had family in town and the instructor he provided was fantastic.
