Beau did a terrific job. He was very friendly, informative and patient with us. We really got up on the boards and enjoyed the waves!!! We will book this activity again when we go back to this area.

Very happy with the experience! The company was friendly and helpful. Our sea cave kayaking around the islands was cancelled due to weather, but we were able to coordinate a surfing lesson on the same day through calling the company. The surfing lesson was amazing...wet suit, booties, and board included. Our instructor, Sean, was super knowledgeable, positive, and encouraging. Great instructor for 1st timers!

We were visiting Santa Barbara from the UK with our 7 and 8 year old children. We had a surf lesson with Marc and everyone loved it. My youngest was standing on his surf board straight away and my daughter pretty soon afterwards. A great success- thank you!

I came with our 17 year old daughter, we stayed at Hotel Milo and drove to Mondo’s Beach for the surfing lesson. We had a great time!! Instructors were very helpful with all of the gear and were very friendly and patient. Our daughter had an awesome time surfing and would love to do it again!!

We actually did two activities with this company and both were great fun with awesome guides. We had done a surfing lesson with another firm the day before near Venice Beach and the Santa Barbara Adventure Company was way better. Pablo and Piers were excellent instructors and were fully engaged with helping us learn how to surf. We even managed to stand up a few times towards the end of the lesson. Shay and Paige were our guides for the Sea Kayaking and there were brilliant also. It was really cool going up the coast. Not sure both my kids enjoyed it as much as the surfing but my wife and I enjoyed it. Maybe it was because we had done single kayaks rather than doing twin ones. If we are back again we would certainly book with them again.
