Here’s what people are saying about Summer of Surf!
“Huge thanks for everything. Great experience. Lots of wonderful, bright memories. Thank you to Zack and the team for your excellent work. You guys are always trying to do what is best for the kiddos. Anyone looking for a great summer surf camp, This Is IT, trust me.
Your kids will be delighted you signed them up. Thank you all ! We will sure be back next summer.” - Lisa N. (2022)
“My son began surfing thanks to Summer of Surf, as this is a sport that no one in our family has figured out. Now 6 years later he continues to join the camp every summer for surfing adventures and karaoke fun. Sadly, this may be his last summer since he's graduating HS and heading to college. I can't say enough good things about all the people involved and the tight ship they run. Looking back, he developed his surfing & leadership skills, discovered his voice, and made solid friendships that I'm sure will last a lifetime. You'd be lucky to a part of this sweet summer deal.” - Titina F. (2021)
“We signed up our 7 year old daughter this summer and she just finished her first week. She has never had so much fun! She comes home every day talking about the friends she made, the waves she surfed, the beach, the bus rides, on and on. The staff has been so great and giving me quick updates on how she is doing and I feel like they really take the safety of the kids seriously.” -Brian R. (2020)
“My son had the most awesome time. He loved the counselors. During this virus he sleeps till 10 but was up and ready to go everyday at 7am to catch the bus. From day one he was so excited. He just can't wait to go back. Love!!” -Susan L. (2020)
“My daughters, 11 and 13 attended 6 days of Summer of Surf this month and absolutely loved it! I was a little nervous to be sending them on a bus and to camp during the pandemic, but the staff clearly took sanitizing, checking for symptoms and remaining in cohorts seriously and my girls had the best time. They came home completely wiped out and wanting more. Would highly recommend this program!” -Stephanie W. (2020)
“My son, 13, attended for the first time this summer. The staff is friendly, compassionate, and knowledgeable. They communicated their safety protocols the entire process and made attending incredibly easy. The activities are age and skill appropriate and they provided all the equipment necessary. My favorite was the pick-up and drop-off options, his favorite was pretty much everything. Summer of Surf is an excellent experience and we look forward to attending again.” - Bre C. (2020)
“Best camp ever! If you are thinking about signing your kid/kids up for camp at Summer of Surf, do it now! My kids absolutely loved this camp and my son is hooked on surfing now. We signed up for one week and they loved it so much, they asked for us to sign them up for a second week. The staff are great as well, other then being at the beach everyday their interactions with the staff was one of their highlights.” - Heather S. (2019)
“Send your kid here!! My 12 yo son went and said it was one of the best days he had EVER had! He said the counselors were all super nice and helped him learn to surf. He is hooked. I will def be recommending this camp to everyone :) THANK YOU SUMMER OF SURF!!!” - Jenna G. (2019)
Such an amazing experience! Everything about this camp was great. Counselors were awesome. The bus was very comfortable & luxurious. My kids had an experience of a life time. Teaching them to conquer fears and take chances. Highly recommend. - Mary M. (2019)
“My kids just got back from their first day with Summer of Surf and they LOVED it. The kids loved the instructors, riding on the super cool bus, and riding the waves. My seven year old has been asking to learn to surf for two years now and I was very excited when I came across their video on facebook. I loved how I had flexibility of choosing how many days they could go (we picked 3) and that they didn't have to use those days up all in the same week. They're looking forward to going next week as well. Thanks Summer of Surf staff!” - Allison P. (2019)
“My son loved this camp! He was able to try out surfing, and felt supported rather than pressured. Mostly, I think he liked hanging out with the staff who were great.” - Victoria W. (2019)
“Summer of surf is fantastic! Thanks to their taking care of drop-off and pick-up in the San Gabriel valley, my daughters have been able to learn to surf. Getting them out to the beach every day would have been impossible. The instructors are great! I always feel that my kids are well supervised.” -Rhonda S. (2018)
“Great camp! Our kid loved it! … safe, fun, and educational!” - JR. C. (2018)
“My kids LOVE this camp!!! They have been attending for the past few years and it's the first camp the ask for when it is time to sign up for the summer. The staff is very caring and attentive. My boys have always a great time riding from Pasadena to the beach and back (yes! They pick up so you don't need to live near the beach to be able to attend this camp!). They spend all day playing, surfing and boogie boarding and they come home having had the time of their life! Thank you Jamie and Summer of Surf staff! “ - Mary F. (2017)
“This surf camp is truly spectacular! … my daughter LOVED it!” - Steve M. (2017)
My kids absolutely love this camp and have been asking to return since they went last August! The counselors are fun, safe and very responsive to all parental questions. The kids have a blast surfing (yes - they actually learn how!), swimming and playing at the beach with other kids. I highly recommend this camp if you kid is interested in a fun surf/beach activity. - MS (2017)
“This surf camp is amazing! I cannot possibly say enough good things about it. Jamie went out of his way to make my son (and me) comfortable with the idea of him being at the beach without me. He and his staff are so incredible and patient with the kids. My 8 year old son still talks about his 3 week experience last summer and has been begging to go again this year. Without a doubt the best money spent on a summer camp. He will definitely be going again this year. Oh and did I mention that they transport them to and from the beach? Does it get any easier? I think not!” - Amy C. (2016)
