Trip Description: Want to catch your first wave? Outdoor Adventure's Learn to Surf trip is the perfect place to start. Believe it or not, the late fall is actually a great time to surf... the water is still warm, the swells are good from storms in the Atlantic, and it's not too hot on the beach. Our trip leaders will introduce you to the basics — paddling, popping up, ocean safety, and reading the waves — all while you enjoy a day at one of Florida's classic surf beaches. Come soak up the sun, splash in the water, and ride your first wave!
What's Included: All of our adventures include all necessary gear for the activity (including surfboards, leashes, and rash guards), transportation to/from the activity, and professional guidance by OA Trip Leaders. All staff are certified in First Aid/CPR/AED
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. A full packing list will be provided at the Pre-Trip Meeting.
