1 Hour Private Surfing Lesson in Rockaway Beach

Rockaway Beach is an ideal place to learn to surf, offering sand-bottomed, beginner-friendly waves you can enjoy throughout the year. As you arrive on the shoreline, you'll find gentle breaks that make practising basic techniques and building confidence easier than on rockier or reef beaches. The environment is suited to beginners while still feeling like a true surfing spot. Alongside the easy waves, Rockaway Beach also produces more powerful surf at times. When big South swells roll into the city’s only surfing beach, you may see occasional world-class waves that attract intermediate and expert surfers. While you’re there, you’ll watch a mix of learners working on fundamentals and more experienced riders tackling bigger conditions, giving you a clear sense of progression and what to aim for as your skills improve.
