Golden surf was great! My 7 year old came for her first ever surf lesson and by the end she was riding the waves and loved it. Everyone was friendly and patient and great for kids to learn.

Excellent
The lesson was excellent!! Worth it indeed! Diego was a superb coach ever. Meeting was easy and he was waiting us even when we arrived 10mins earlier. He is professional and passionate. Kind and warm heart. He never minded to take care little boy and gave so much hard works to make my sons to enjoy and feel the wave. He understands well how to handle beginner and little kid safely. My sons had a wonderful surfing memory in beautiful California beach. Highly recommended.

Amazing surf instructor
Alex is an amazing surf instructor. We have tried others and no one has been able to not only teach the kids but also get them as excited about surfing !
