Overview

Learn all the basic surf knowledge in no time with our unique technique! Our school's proven method can have even complete beginners standing up on a surfboard in less than two hours. You don't have to wait for weeks to experience the thrill of surfing!

In just two hours, we'll cover everything you need to become a surfer. We'll start with a half-hour land lesson where you'll learn the basic rules and surf safety. Then, we'll get in the water with your instructor, who will guide you every step of the way. Once you're ready, you can practice on your own.

Our beginner surfing lessons offer the best value, with an optimal student-to-instructor ratio. We use a safe part of the beach that's perfect for surfing, even if you've never been on a board before. You'll be riding waves and feeling the joy of surfing after your very first lesson!

    Frequently Asked Questions

    (8)

    Q: Will I get seasick on Surf Class for Beginners in Venice?

    A: If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy. Read more Feb 2023
