Me and my girlfriend had a lesson here two days ago, and we got going and were standing up and riding so fast. Instructors here are unbelieveably helpful, I couldn't believe me and my uncoordinated girlfriend were actually doing what we had been wanting to do forever. My only regret is that I did not bring my camera, as no... more

Leucadia Surf School was the highlight of my trip to San Diego!! Gerry is the coolest surf instructor, and the other guys he brings on to help are equally as knowledgeable.

We visited Encinitas from England with our 5 children and the 3 older ones - 16, 14 and 13 - really wanted an introduction to surfing. They had 2 lessons with Gerry who was fantastic. He provided the wetsuits, boards and knowledge of tides, locations, etc. In the water Gerry was great and provided exactly what we needed - someone... more

Gerry is an experienced instructor, who has been surfing all of his life! Gerry is knowledgeable and easy to understand and gives you a good foundation for surfing so that you can go out on your own and surf. For beginners like us, he showed us how to spot waves that were good for beginners to learn on, very helpful!... more

Gerry made learning how to surf fun and easy. He has a natural style of teaching as well as an eye for details that comes with lots of years in the waves. His school is not just about getting you to stand up right away. He is all about giving the beginner a foundation that you can build on. I'm... more
