Good to Know
- Surf Camp is quite a different experience than the cable park because kids are on the boat for duration of camp time. Plus at the Cable Park, campers learn kneeboarding and wakeboarding.
- At Surf Camp, campers experience Wake Surfing. This is a little different than what happens a the park, as it emulates traditional surfing.
- Each of the CPR Certified boat captains are highly qualified and dedicated water sports enthusiasts. They’ll maneuver the vessel in a way that makes it as easy as possible to get up while wakesurfing. They’re also excellent coaches! Want to learn tricks during your time at Surf camp? They can coach throughout your time on the boat.
- Parents are not allowed on the boat for this camp due to space limitations on the boat.
What to bring
- Campers should bring/wear a bathing suit, towel, sunscreen, extra snacks and water.
