Passionate about the Ocean and Sharing the Stoke

Born out of a deep love for the ocean and a desire to share the magic of surfing, Socal Surf Lessons has been guiding beginners and seasoned surfers in Carlsbad for over 17 years. Led by Rusty Friesen, a seasoned surfer with extensive experience across the globe, our team is dedicated to providing memorable and engaging experiences.

Our Expertise

We specialize in personalized private and group surf lessons for all ages and skill levels. Our experienced instructors tailor their teaching style to each student's needs, ensuring they learn effectively and feel comfortable in the water.

What to Expect

A typical surf lesson with us starts with a short briefing on the beach, covering safety protocols, basic paddling techniques, and wave reading. Then, you'll spend the majority of your time in the water with your instructor, learning:

  • Paddleboarding: Mastering the basics of paddling and maneuvering
  • Catching waves: Techniques for popping up, riding the face, and riding the wave
  • Safety skills: Staying safe in the water and understanding tides and currents

Our Commitment

Our top priorities are your safety, fun, and learning. We provide top-notch equipment including wetsuits, surfboards, and ankle leash. We also guarantee your satisfaction. If you don't catch a wave during your first lesson, we'll offer you a free session on your next visit.

What Makes Us Unique

  • Licensed, Bonded, and Insured: Your safety is our utmost concern.
  • Experienced Instructors: Our instructors are passionate about sharing their love for surfing with others.
