★★★★★Megan Caputo

My son had a GREAT first experience at Ocean School. I signed him up for one day and each day he came back begging to go again. He LOVED coach Orlando. Highly recommend!

★★★★★Courtney Karlin

We absolutely loved spending part of our summer at Ocean School. My 5 year old son had the time of his life and loved Orlando and Jenn so much. He has so much more confidence in the ocean and on a surf or boogie board. Such a great experience.

★★★★★Abigail Bunt

This is my 6 year old's second season with Ocean School and he absolutely loves it! He loves to surf and just have fun with the group. My husband and I love Jenn and Orlando's energy, and that they are teaching the kids more than just surf skills. Each session the kids learn about ocean safely and how to keep the ocean clean. They also engage in a variety of beach games and social activities. My son has developed some great friendships from Ocean School. If you want your child to learn love and respect for the ocean and have a great time with friends, Ocean School is the place to be!

★★★★★Diana Riggs

My husband and I absolutely LOVE Ocean School. More importantly, our son does! Jenn and Orlando KNOW the kids that attend ocean school- they understand what is best for them as individuals, and they make the experience work for everyone. It is so fun for the kids and so safe for parents! Our son NEVER tires of going -and he attends the after school program and summer camp. His surfing is getting better and better and he understands what proper edict is in the water. He also learns about respecting the ocean and the environment. I cannot recommend Ocean School enough ~ our family absolutely love Jenn and Orlando and are truly grateful for what they are doing 💙🌊

Jenn and Orlando are the best instructors/guides for little ones eager to explore, create and learn! They hold a safe container for kids to be their most authentic selves and I’ve been able to join along for a full day to witness the magic kids co-create when they come together in the great outdoors under strong leadership. I’ve admittedly never been a big ocean person myself but, wow, this program and the impact it’s making has made me a believer! Ocean school is definitely cool.
