Perfect for Beginners: Mondos Beach, the Ideal Learning Spot

Mondos beach is renowned as one of the best beginner surf spots in Southern California, making it the ideal location for our surf camp. The gentle waves and sandy bottom at Mondos beach provide a safe and forgiving environment for beginners to learn how to surf. Our instructors carefully select the best beginner-friendly waves to ensure that students can progress at their own pace and build their confidence on the board.

Comprehensive Surf Sessions: 

We offer 8 weekly sessions at Ventura Surf School, with each session lasting from 9 am to 2 pm. Our surf sessions are carefully structured to provide a comprehensive learning experience for our students. Each day begins with a warm-up and stretching session, followed by surf instruction on the beach where students learn about ocean safety, surf etiquette, and basic surf techniques. Students then hit the water with their instructors for hands-on surfing practice. Our low student-to-instructor ratio (4x1) ensures that each student receives personalized attention and feedback to help them improve their skills.

All-Inclusive Package: Equipment Included

At Ventura Surf School, we provide all the necessary surfing equipment, including soft-top surfboards and wetsuits, as part of our all-inclusive package. Our high-quality equipment is carefully maintained to ensure the safety and comfort of our students during their surf sessions. Our instructors also provide guidance on choosing the right board and wetsuit for each student’s skill level and body type to optimize their surfing experience.

What to Bring: Lunch, Sunscreen, Towel, and Hat

Students at Ventura Surf School are required to bring their own lunch, sunscreen, towel, and hat. We recommend students pack a nutritious lunch to fuel their energy for an exciting day of surfing. Sunscreen is essential to protect the skin from harmful UV rays, and a towel and hat are handy for post-surfing activities and sun protection. We also recommend students bring a water bottle to stay hydrated throughout the day.

At Ventura Surf School, safety is our top priority. Our experienced instructors provide comprehensive instruction on ocean awareness and surf etiquette to ensure that students understand how to stay safe in the water and respect the ocean environment.
