Where to Take Surfing Lessons in San Diego

We love trying new things, and we’ve talked about learning to surf for a while. After moving to San Diego, we finally decided to take lessons and found San Diego Surf School.

Our instructor gave us a quick run down of how to stand up on the board. After practicing for about 10 minutes on land, we got into the water to try it out!

We took turns trying to catch the waves and standing on the board. I was really nervous that I would be swallowing a lot of salt water, but I stood on my third try! Jacob on the other hand had a bit more trouble. That made me SO happy since, he’s pretty much better at any activity that involves body coordination. I basically can’t control any of my limbs.

We stayed out in the water for just over an hour and a half and had so much fun! By the end we were both getting the hang of it. Now, we’re thinking about getting our own boards so we can keep practicing. We hear that trying to catch the waves on our own is the hardest part – it’s all about timing and paddling quick enough.

Any surfers out there have tips on what kind of wetsuit and surfboard to buy?
