Our surf camps run weekly from June 10th through August 16th. The camp operates at the Virginia Beach oceanfront on the beach at 4th street and has a daily start time of 8am. Drop- off and pickup take place on the boardwalk. Click the link below to learn more and choose your options.
Private and group surf lessons are available all summer for $60/hr. with additional students and hours available at a discounted rate. All lessons include use of surfboard and leash, and a guarantee that you’ll stand up!
We realize how lucky we are to spend our lives around the ocean, so we’re giving back free surf lessons for children from low income families who might otherwise never get that opportunity. Our goal is to share our “stoke” with as many participants each year as possible.
*EXCLUSIVELY FOR STUDENTS WHO LACK THE MEANS TO PAY FOR CAMP
Our proven program isn’t about propping you up on a wave; rather, we’re here to provide you an education. Whether sharing our knowledge of surfing, waves, ocean conservation, surfboards, or competition, we’re with you during every step of your surfing life. Our ratio of friendly, skilled instructors to students is 1:4, ensuring plenty of individual attention. We offer residents and visitors alike an informative, unforgettable and fun experience. Our youth camps culminate in a pizza party, camp slideshow, and other giveaways including camp tee, discount card, stickers and free surf photography.
Virginia Beach Surf offers an accommodating, non-threatening venue for beginner surfing. The warm summer Atlantic and mellow waves make learning a breeze.

Both of my twins attended Jason’s camp and it was such a positive experience for them! The team was caring helpful and top notch professionals. The twins were getting up and riding waves in what seemed like no time! I highly recommend the camp! Guaranteed good time!

My children have attended Jason's surf camps every year since they were 6 years old, the oldest is now 14. The kids have a great time, learn surfing skills, as well as vital water safety techniques. As parents we are very comfortable knowing they are in great hands. Our oldest even hopes to work at camp in the coming years.

As someone who grew up attending the camp, to later becoming an instructor, this camp enhanced my love for not only surfing but the ocean as well. Jason is not only a great surfer, but a great person. Would recommend attending this camp to any and everyone. This camp has afforded me some of my best childhood memories!

Have known Jason over 20 years grew up surfing with him not to mention he helps out with a couple different camps one that I’m involved individuals who are paralyzed and others that also have to use a wheelchair but always a great teacher and surfer
