Such a great camp! All three of my children loved it, ages 16, 14 and 9. Every instructor was really nice and they were all very helpful teachers. I couldn’t believe how much my kids learned in just a few days! We signed up for another week later in the summer because they enjoyed it so much!Posted on Google![]()

My granddaughters have attended Elation and Heritage surf camps, both of which they loved. Avalon Surf Camp was the most expensive, and not well run. My granddaughter spent well less than half the time in the water. She waited for a “rotating” instructor the rest of the time was told to wait on shore next to her board. The instructors had “favorite” surfers that they vied to get, switching the order of the other kids waiting. Surfers were supposed to have 3 waves before they were sent back to wait on the beach but some of the instructors gave surfers one, and returned them to wait. My granddaughter overheard their unprofessional conversations of their dating lives. Just overall, unprofessional, and sadly, a bad experience.Posted on Google![]()

We had a great experience with Avalon surf camp! Dave, the owner, is super responsive and chatted with me beforehand about lessons for my daughter to ensure she would have a comfortable lesson. It was easy to schedule and pay online. Brooke, our coach, was prompt, friendly, flexible and most importantly was SO helpful in getting my daughter’s confidence in the waves back! We can’t wait to go back!Posted on Google![]()

This is by far the best camp ever! My boys felt so excited each morning that we even came back for another week! From the director to the instructors— we couldn’t have handpicked better! They were so fun, motivating, and knowledgeable. They deserve more than 5 stars! We now get the hype around this camp! HIGHLY RECOMMEND.Posted on Google![]()
