About this class

Calibunga Surf School at the Santa Monica Pier runs beginner surf lessons in the water at Santa Monica beach, with all boards, rash guards, and leashes provided and instructors available in the water throughout the session. The curriculum covers paddling out, reading small waves, and the pop-up technique, with instructors giving hands-on guidance on timing and positioning for each ride. Groups are kept small to maximize water time per student.
