We bought a couple vouchers on Groupon and decided to learn how to surf. I did not realize that the group lesson I purchased was only good if there were three or more in the class. I got a call the day before saying there were not enough epople so we would have to re-schedule or pay more for a... More

A friend and I picked up the living social deal for surf camp and what a great experience. Erin patiently answered all my questions before hand and Melissa was the best teacher. I had only SUPd before and was able to get up the first day! We were on waves all week! A great experience, I would definitely recommend :) More

Just returned from Costa Rica with fellow Divas and had a fabulous time! From surfing to yoga to surprises ~ the week was memorable. I had only SUPd and surfed once as a child and everyone was great at building confidence and motivation to surf. Coaches Melissa and Sonja were wonderfully patient and supportive of all levels of Divas. Izzy... More

I only rented a board and wetsuit two separate days, but they obviously run a good operation. They were very generous with their clock, I'd say, since I'm pretty sure I used the equipment longer than I was charged. Great fun. More

I got a Living Social deal for a surfing lesson, dinner, and a cocktail. It was a great deal, so I invited my best friend to try it with me. We have been saying we wanted to surf for about 13 years now, and have lived at many beaches, so no excuses after this long! It was at La Jolla... More

My fifteen year old daughter took a one hour lesson from instructor Sean, whom we were told by Izzy (who owns Surf Diva along with her sister) is actually a pretty successful surfer on the pro circuit. My daughter had taken some prior lessons, but still would be considered a beginner. By the end of the hour, Sean had her... More

I participated in the July 2011 Overnight Camp and had the most amazing experience. The 5 day camp was well organized and more than I could have hoped for. The instructors are top in their in field many of which compete in surfing circuit - these divas know their stuff! I had no previous surf experience and by the end... More

If you want to learn to surf, and you are in La Jolla, I strongly recommend you try Surf Diva. You are in a small group and the instructors are both knowledgeable and friendly. I could already stand and catch my own waves by the end of the hour! More

Even as a San Diego native, I never learned to surf until I packed my bags for Costa Rica to attend the Surf Diva surf camp. What an incredible experience: the instructors are gifted, patient, and super awesome girls! They have a great knack for catering their instruction to the skills and abilities of each student and made the whole... More
