Took private surf lessons with Hannah and absolutely loved it! The staff are all super friendly and attentive. I came back a couple days later and rented equipment to surf again (half price if you rent within a few days of your lesson from what I understand). Now Im hooked! :) I highly recommend this place.

Best experience in OB.

My son and daughter have grown up spending two weeks each summer at the Ocean Experience camp. We send them back every year because they always leave wanting more. It’s not just because they are having fun, they are learning how to surf, respect their environment, and respect others. The staff may Slowly change over the years as counselors move on to the next phase of their lives, but the owner, Roger Caldwell’s vision and philosophy has remained constant through the years. Now that my kids are getting older we’ve also joined in with the Roger’s other venture, the Baja Experience, and have had epic guided trips down to Baja with his team. Such a great family oriented and community oriented organization, I highly recommend it!

The lesson gave us tangible knowledge we could use in the water. All five of us caught waves and left with our hearts full. Thanks to Andrew and the whole crew.

We called to schedule surf Lessons but Andrew (manager) forgot to put us in the book...wasted half a day bc the family couldn’t get lessons from anyone until much later in the day!!!! The staff there was very nice and apologetic and tried everything they could to accommodate us. Still recommend these guys but MAKE sure you get your confirmation!!!! I scheduled towards the end of the day and I guess Andrew didn’t care bc it was close to closing time.

Ocean Experience is the real deal if you want to learn how to surf and not just go try for a couple hours. They have a refined approach to actually treaching the fundamentals and safety measures before getting into the water. I think the land based portion of the lesson leads to much higher success rates and fun factor than a lot of the other surf lessons in the area. Great instructors and great location in south mission beach.

Had an incredible amount of fun just being out in the water. Got up on some waves and learned a lot about surfing :-)

Learning to surf was the highlight of my trip to San Diego! These guys were incredibly helpful. Thank you!

First hostel experience. Friendly helpful staff, loved how they planned activities.

Matt and Jared were awesome They helped me catch a bunch of good waves and taught me how to get out past the break without getting beat up to bad. It was a great time!

Ocean Experience is hands down the best surf lesson in San Diego, so much fun surfing!

This place is awesome. If you want to learn how to surf this is your place.

My kids have done the summer camp for the past 3 years and love it.

Great team!
