Community Surf Programs
On Wednesdays and weekends the Spring and Fall, our community gets together to connect with the ocean and surf. We welcome you to join us!
Our community surf programs are for girls, women, and gender-expansive people seeking female-of-center spaces. For beginners, we introduce you gently to all elements of surfing, from wetsuits, to board safety, to learning how to be in the ocean. Those who have surfed before can continue to work on their skills and enjoy the great community vibe. All equipment is provided.
Payment is due at the time of registration. The costs to us as an organization for running our deeply intentional, covid safe, and community focused surf programs is over $400 per individual per session. We are committed to making surfing accessible to everyone so sliding scale pricing is available starting at $10. We ask that anyone who can contribute at the top of the sliding scale range, do so, so that we can continue to make surfing accessible to all.
