Van Curaza Surf School 80 San Francisco Street, Avila Beach, CA 93424

"Van's crew is super professional and experienced. I scheduled a session for my 7 year old to surf for his first time and it was simply great. Kanoa, our surf instructor was super patient and dedicated. My son had an amazing time and caught a bunch of waves and we felt that he was in good and safe hands. We are definitely coming back for more!"

"I signed my 8 year old daughter up for surf lessons for the first time. I was a little bit nervous since I was unsure of how she would like it. She absolutely loved it. After completing two weeks she asked to be signed up for more! The instructors are kind, passionate, and encouraging. She had so much fun and would tell me of all the adventures they had that day. Chris and Sarah were the lead instructions and I could not say more great things about them. They truly cared for her well being, really encouraged her, and brought her out of her shell. We absolutely will be signing up for more surf camp next summer. Highly recommend!"

"My kids did a couple of days for surf camp with Van Curaza. I was really impressed by how excellent the instructors were really great with helping the kids and getting them surfing, while also going at the kid's pace and making sure that they had fun. I also noticed that the camp was run in a really safe way where all of the kids were well looked after. Van Curaza is an excellent surf school and a great place to learn to surf."

"Van and Dan are amazing! My daughter loved her first surf lesson with these patient, kind, and professional instructors. It is obvious they truly love what they do and they give their clients a genuine surf experience. We will definitely book more lessons next time we are in the area."
