Carolina Salt Surf Lessons Palm Boulevard, Isle of Palms, SC 29451

"Great surf lessons! My daughter wanted to learn how to surf for her birthday. We were not disappointed!! Tao (I know I didn’t spell that right) was awesome. Super friendly and had her up and surfing immediately. We plan on a few more lessons. Definitely a great place to learn :)"

"Kyle was fantastic in every way!  His communication was top notch.  He answered all my questions to calm my nerves about my child's first lessons.  He was incredibly patient, supportive, and enthusiastic with my daughter!  He was extremely generous with his time, energy, equipment, and availability.  No wonder he's been voted and reviewed so highly!  After meeting Kyle, there's no way we'd ever go anywhere else for our surfing needs.  He also was so helpful with information about paddleboards.  We brought our own boards and he was happy to share tips and advice regarding great/safe spots to explore."

"Love this crew & 10/10 recommend! This was my second lesson with Kyle & Team (about a year apart) while visiting family in Charleston. Not only do they know what they're talking about, but they make it super fun. Surfing is definitely hard but Kyle is very encouraging and gives great feedback of how to improve your form / what you should be looking for in the waves, etc. Location is also key if you're looking to spend a beach day on Folly - they are centrally located to just chill on the beach after. Can't go wrong!"

"Kyle is the man. I was looking for an instructor to teach my girlfriend and roommate to surf and we couldn’t have found anyone better. Kyle was so good with them that I decided to take a couple lessons myself (It’s not everyday you get the chance to learn from a pro surfer). I’ve had a handful of surf lessons from different instructors they usually tend to remind me of Paul Rudd in Forgetting Sarah Marshall. Kyle is not that, he’s the real deal. Highly recommend taking a lesson from him, whether you’re a beginner or intermediate surfer, you’ll have an awesome experience."

"I'm a surfing beginner who's taken lessons a couple of times in surf spots around the world, and Kyle and his team at Carolina Salt were, without a doubt, the best instructors I've ever had. Kyle went out of his way to learn everyone's name (we were a fairly sizable group) quickly, was genuinely interested in learning about each of us, and combined technical instruction and feedback with encouragement, support, and overall positivity. He and his team took photos of us in the water and stayed out there for hours helping us identify waves and giving us some pushes into the waves until we had gained enough proficiency to do them on our own. Kyle's also just a fun, laid-back guy who's genuinely passionate about surfing and sharing what he knows with others. Despite some choppy weather, I had a great time and made far more progress as a beginner surfer than I expected. I hope I'll get a chance to hang out with and learn from Kyle again in the future!"
