WaveHuggers, San Diego

What services does your business offer and what makes your business stand out from the competition?
We are an ocean conscious surf school that not only teaches people how to surf, but also teaches them so they have the confidence to go on their own after one lesson!

What equipment is provided? Is there anything visitors need to bring?
We provide a surfboard and wetsuit. Bring water, sunscreen, a towel, and warm clothes for after the lesson.

What was the inspiration to start or run this business?
I grew up surfing and fell in love with the sport and the feeling of riding a wave. The ocean is humbling and surfing allows you to transcend physical and mental barriers. I wanted to share that feeling and the moments and lessons the ocean has to teach with others.

What do you love most about your job?
The best thing about teaching surf lessons is experiencing the joy of a student catching his/her first wave. Sharing the feeling of riding a wave is priceless.
