Frequently Asked

Rental FAQS

Yes, you may RENT a board after the lesson if a board is available. We reserve our lesson boards for lessons so the rental board will likely be different than the lesson board, but we can set you up with the rental once your lesson is over if desired.

Our 1 to 3 hour special for surf boards / body boards is $20, full day $35; and our 1 to 3 hour special for stand up paddle boards is $30, full day $50. If it is your first time, most people are fairly tired after the lesson and may require more lessons before going on their own.

Our hours for rentals is 8:30am to 5:30pm, however there are days that we may open a little later or close a little earlier at the beach location due to our scheduled lessons. If renting on another day, best to call before coming down to make sure we are available to rent you a board.
