Learn to Surf

Campsurf is the official surf school provider for Manhattan Beach & Hermosa Beach

We are the official surf school of the city of Manhattan Beach and have been contracted to run their Department of Parks and Recreation surf classes since 1997 and are now also the official surf school of the city of Hermosa Beach. 

We have been featured on ESPN, Fit TV, K-CAL Channel 9, the nationally broadcasted CBS Morning show, HD Net’s “Get Out!” and the nationally syndicated TV show “The Doctors”. We’ve also been voted “Best Kids Camp” by our local community three years in a row 2017, 2018 and 2019!

All of our programs emphasize safety and fun, but we also take the next step and teach our students to view the ocean with a surfer’s eye so they can safely and confidently ride waves on their own. Our professional surf instructors have taught thousands of surf lessons to students and can assess and address bad techniques so students can improve and move forward on their surfing path. All of our surf lessons, surf classes, and surf camps include the use of quality surfboards and wetsuits and we are well stocked in all sizes of both.

Our surf lessons and surf camps take place at Rosecrans Avenue in the El Porto area of beautiful Manhattan Beach, CA.

What really sets Campsurf apart from other surf schools are Our Instructors. All of our instructors are CPR and First-Aid Certified and are experienced surfers and watermen. They each bring their own surf culture and stoke to our students through proven teaching techniques. We are stoked on our crew and can guarantee you will not find a more experienced group of surf instructors at any other surf school. Check out Our Instructors page to meet the crew and see for yourself.
