A must add to any trip to the Charleston area! This was so much fun, my partner and I made a day trip out of Folly Island and started with the surf lesson and it was so much fun! Super easy to book and find on the beach. The instructor we had (John) was great, patient and encouraging the entire time!

The people were great and it was easy to set-up and get going. Our instructor Andrew was awesome. He made it easy to understand what was needed to ride waves and was also great to chat with. We highly recommend booking lessons and plan to return for more.
