Let’s clear things up before you hit the waves.

Do I need to be an advanced surfer?
Nope! We match you based on your level — beginner-friendly sessions included.
What if I don’t live near the beach?
You can still join, and we’ll match you if/when others near you sign up. You’ll also get invites to trips and remote meetups.
