The Los Angeles Business Journal referred to Campsurf as “Los Angeles’ premier surf school.” We are the official surf school of the city of Manhattan Beach and have been contracted to run their Department of Parks and Recreation surf classes since 1997. We have been featured on ESPN, Fit TV, K-CAL Channel 9, the nationally broadcasted CBS Morning show, HD Net’s “Get Out!” and the nationally syndicated TV show “The Doctors”. All of our programs emphasize safety and fun, but we also take the next step and teach our students to view the ocean with a surfer’s eye so they can safely and confidently ride waves on their own. Our professional surf instructors have taught thousands of students and can assess and address bad techniques so students can improve and move forward on their surfing path. All of our surf lessons, surf classes, and surf camps include the use of quality surfboards and Body Glove wetsuits and we are well stocked in all sizes of both. Our lessons and camps take place at Rosecrans Avenue in the El Porto area of beautiful Manhattan Beach, just 2 miles south of the Los Angeles International Airport (LAX). With it’s stunning beach and consistent, year-round surf, Manhattan Beach is the best location in Los Angeles to take a surf lesson. Los Angeles Magazine listed El Porto and Campsurf in their August 2009 “Best of LA” issue as the “Best Beach for New Surfers.”
