Why Choose Us
Surf! Surf! Surf!
​
In our Lil' Shredders San Diego Kids Summer Surf Camp We actually SURF!!
We are the summer camp with the most SURF time offered in the whole San Diego. Guaranteed! With up to three hour surf sessions every day, you will not find another “camp” or “surf camp” that spends that much time IN THE WATER focusing into developing your kiddos surf and ocean skills.
​
Why pay thousands of dollars and not even go in the water like Y? Hint, hint. Why pay for a “summer camp” with 20 kids attendees on top of each other supervised by a couple teenagers who only go in the water for less than 30 minutes? Lots of summer camps are childcare disguised as a "surf camp" filled with random activities to fill in time. Nothing wrong if that's what you are lookin for but if you sign up for a surf camp with us that is what we deliver. And that’s why you should choose us. Because we are THE BEST SURF CAMP!!!
Have your kiddos join us on celebrating our 10th year of coaching surfing!!!
