Fall 2025
"Locals Summer"
Surf Afterschool
We are so lucky to have "Locals' Summer" as the weather tends to stay beautiful and sunny and the beaches are much less crowded. It's typically the best season for surfing in San Diego and our favorite time of the year!
​
This program is ideal for first-time, beginner or experienced-beginner surfers who are excited to learn or improve their surfing and spark friendships in a supportive community in the waves.
Fall "Locals' Summer" Surf Afterschool Program includes a land lesson and in-water surf instruction with ISA surf coaches each day. Boards and full wetsuits are also provided as needed.​​​​
