★★★★★Nicole Whatcott

I can’t say enough good things about our experience with Padre Island Surf Camp! Josh is so accommodating. I have a little one who has a short attention span and they are so patient with him. I’m very grateful for their time spent with my son and he loves it!

★★★★★Jannik Schlüter

I had an absolute blast. My friend and I booked a private lesson with Josh. It was my first time on a board and Josh was committed to make me get on a wave. With success. We had so much fun that we came back a day later, rented boards, and got out on our own. If you’re in the area and are looking to surf I highly recommend Padre Island Surf Camp.

Arrived at the beach at 7am for a nice spot and literally put their boards RIGHT in front of us. Didn’t even have leg room. Unbelievable that they didn’t even ask us to move. We had been here at least an hour and a half before they arrived. Totally unprofessional.

★★★★★Jennifer Eisen

We paid for a private lesson for our 10 year old. It was an incredible experience for him! Josh was a great, down-to-earth instructor and our son got a lot out of just one lesson. The scheduling process was a little chaotic, but it all worked out in the end. I would definitely recommend Josh to anyone wanting a surf lesson! :-)

★★★★★Richard Roseland

My kids (8 and 10) did this camp for the first time this year. It was amazing!!! Josh Perez is an amazing director and is great at what he does. They were surfing by the first day and by day 5 were getting up every single wave! Communication with Josh is great and every trainer has been excellent. The website sometimes glitched and directed me to another website, but if you click on the camps link on Google, then registration was great...and early bird specials at the beginning of the year were $100 cheaper. Highly recommend it! Your kids will love it!!!
