Bolinas Surf Lessons offers both private and group lessons.

Weekend Group Class
Bolinas Surf Lessons offers Adult Beginner Group Classes on Saturday and Sunday for $50 per person. Classes last 1½ hours. These classes are designed for beginner and first time surfers and will focus on surfing rules, etiquette and wave riding fundamentals. Unlike other surf schools that may have as many as 20 students, our class size is kept small (usually 3 to 6 people) to ensure students receive the personal attention they need to develop their surfing skills. Advance registration is recommended to attend Group Classes. Group Classes are offered from April to October. Surf equipment (board, suit, and boots) will be available to rent from 2 Mile Surf Shop for your lesson.

When using our on line schedule to join our beginner surf class, you must reserve a space for each person that plans to attend. Last minute drop-ins can only join the class if there is room. When you arrive at the 2 Mile Surf Shop you can pay for the rental gear needed for your lesson.

Private Lessons
Private lessons are available for 1 to 24 people and can be scheduled for all ages. Come alone and receive one-on-one instruction or bring as many friends or co-workers as you like. Surf lessons are a great activity to learn with the encouragement of your friends or can be a great team-building exercise. Private lessons last 1½ hours and cost $110 for the first person and $30 for each additional participant. Private lessons are offered year round and can be scheduled for any time during the week or on the weekend. Surf equipment (board, suit, and boots) will be available to rent from 2 Mile Surf Shop for your lessons.

When scheduling a private surf lesson or kids private surf lesson for more than one person in our on line schedule, just reserve and pay for one person (Quantity 1) and bring as many of your friends as you like. Make sure to put the total number of people you expect to be joining the lesson in the "Number of Participants" field. This will ensure that we have the correct number of boards and instructors reserved for your lesson.
