6.2 Hour Private Surf Lesson in Cocoa Beach

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 12 reviews · 2 hours (approx.) · from $120

Meet your instructor at Palm Lane Beach Access for a private Cocoa Beach surf lesson. Start with stretches and a land tutorial on safety and technique, then spend the rest of the two hours in the water as your instructor helps you catch waves. Boards and winter wetsuits are provided. Instructors have included Brian, Frankie, and Liana.

“Frankie’s service is great. He has multiple instructors, one of which will be assigned to you. Brian took me under his wing and was my instructor for 3 days. This was my second time surfing and I feel much more confident with the board. I went from laying to getting up into the standing position to popping up from the laying position into a standing position on the board. The second method makes for a smoother transition. He also taught me a little bit about reading the ocean and some preemptive safety measures while surfing Florida beaches. Overall great lesson. Highly recommended! Ask for Brian!!”
