Privater Surfkurs in Venice Beach

Thank you so much, you gave our 2 teenagers the best surf lesson, Lorenzo was a great instructor and had both of them stood up really quickly allowing them to enjoy the two hours having a proper surf. Would highly recommend and we would definitely come back again if ever in LA..

Reserving two rental surfboards, two rental wetsuits, and one two hour lesson with Lorenzo was very easy. I live in Los Angeles and travel to Venice Beach was convenient as well as the ease of locating the truck that Golden Wave Surf School operates from. My fourteen-year old son and I had a two hour lesson with Lorenzo who was incredibly attentive and thorough - he would observe our abilities and skills and adjust his instruction accordingly. For instance, he noticed that my son was able to pop up and stand on the board with ease so began instructing him at the intermediate level within 30 minutes of the lesson. We also asked Lorenzo to show us how he surfs that break at Venice Beach. He happily took one of our boards and shredded by cross-stepping the length of the board during one ride and on another one he was able to do a 180 degree shove-it with the board. My son was instantly hooked! I highly recommend Golden Wave Surf School and their instructor, Lorenzo!

First time surfing with no experience and Alex was extremely helpful and patient with instructions making sure I was comfortable before entering the water. I would highly recommend Golden Wave for anyone thinking about trying surfing.

Amazing instruction! This wasn't the first surf lesson my wife had but this was the best. We plan on coming back for more lesson! The lesson was a perfect length and she started on the beach and then went out to try the white water with the help of the instructor. We plan on coming back every two weeks.

My (2) kids 10 and 11 had a 2 hour private lesson both have never surfed. The instructor did a great job teaching and encouraging them by the end both were able to get up on the board and ride the wave. He also worked with them on the steering. I would definitely recommend this lesson

My two daughters had a great experience. Paul was super patient and a great instructor. Would absolutely recommend.

The instructor was knowledgeable and great. Logistically easy meet up. Lots of time in the water and up on the board, and a really memorable experience overall.

Alex Lorenzo and Bart have been incredibly patient and amazing throughout my surfing lessons. It’s honestly the highlight of my week to go there and learn. I’ve learned how to stand up and surf properly. They’re also incredibly nice and go all out to make sure I have a great experience.

I went into this not knowing what to expect at ALL. I have never surfed before in my life and consider myself to be an okay swimmer. As someone who is also in their mid 50's, I wasn't sure how hard this activity would be on my body which is why I wanted private lessons. My teenage daughter also never surfed and wanted to try this. I read reviews for different places and selected "golden wave surf school" based on the positive experiences. I am so grateful I did that research because our experience was fantastic! Lorenzo was so patient, kind and thorough in all that we needed to know and do. Within 30 minutes of our lesson, we both were able to successfully stand and glide with the waves to the shore. I would also recommend the option to have your experience recorded so you can brag about it later! :) Be sure to bring your own towel and come ready to get into your wet suit. The public restrooms were really gross, and we ended up changing into our swim suits in our car! Afterwards, you can shower off at the beach rinse-offs but again, bring something easy to get in and out of.

Amazing two hour private lesson for my 14 year old daughter. Alex was a phenomenal instructor. Had my daughter surfing in no time.
