Trip Description:Want to catch your first wave while giving back to the coast? Join Outdoor Adventure and the Surfrider Foundation for a day of surfing, ocean education, and beach stewardship. Our Trip Leaders will introduce you to the basics of surfing while Surfrider shares how they're working to protect our oceans, waves, and beaches. We'll also spend time participating in a beach cleanup before heading home, making this a rewarding day both in and out of the water.

What's Included: All of our adventures include all necessary gear for the activity (including surfboards, leashes, and rash guards) and professional guidance by OA Trip Leaders. All staff are certified in First Aid/CPR/AED, and most are certified Wilderness First Responders.

What's Not Included:Participants should wear a swimsuit, appropriate footwear, and bring personal water/snacks. We also suggest a towel and a change of clothing. Meals are not provided on this trip. A full packing list will be provided at the Pre-Trip Meeting.
