Kids Surf Lesson
We met Brandon and Jesus on the beach and they provided instructions on where to meet prior to the lesson. The lesson for my 10yo and 8yo was great and they were riding the waves before the end. Jesus was very patient with them. The boys had a lot of fun and I highly recommend them.

Surfing in minutes! Smiles for hours!
Logan was amazing! Our 3 teenage girls were not keen on being up at 7 am on vacation for a surfing lesson but were all delighted and loving it by the time they hit the waves with Logan. Her coaching was spot on and they really caught some great waves at Windyhill and feel more confident to surf on their own.

Two great surfing experiences
We live at Myrtle Beach Travel Park. They offer a surf camp experience once a week. We booked two times for my grandson, age 11. First lesson (1 1/2 hrs) was 4 people. Second was just our grandson. It was his first time surfing and he loved it! Josh was a great instructor! We were thoroughly happy with both lessons. I highly recommend them.

Surfing with Josh was excellent
We have done surf lessons twice, in 2024 and again in 2026. Both times were excellent. The instructors are great with everyone and personalize so each surfer gets the challenge they are ready for. This year our group was small and Josh led a great class. The kids, mine are 15 and 18, were in the water quick and rotating thrill riding waves. Josh gave great feedback that helped them improve with each run. Highly recommend!
Response from the operator: Thanks so much for coming back to surf with us again! We're thrilled to hear that both your 2024 and 2026 lessons were excellent. Josh is fantastic at giving that personalized feedback to keep things challenging and fun, and we're so glad the kids were catching so many great waves. Appreciate the high recommendation, and we look forward to making it a third time down the road!

Private lessons with...
Private lessons with friendly instructors on a uncrowded beach. We had 4 kids 21-11 and all enjoyed it.
Response from the operator: We love hearing that the whole crew had such a great time! Managing a group of kids with different ages can be a wave of its own, so we're thrilled our instructors made it an awesome and enjoyable experience for everyone. Thank you for choosing us for your private North Myrtle Beach surf lessons—we hope to see you all back on our uncrowded beaches next time!

Why this scores 66
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Surf Lessons in Myrtle Beach: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Myrtle Beach.
How much does Private Surf Lessons in Myrtle Beach cost?
+
Prices start at $80 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Myrtle Beach usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Surf Lessons in Myrtle Beach take?
+
Plan for about 1.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Myrtle Beach is not rushed.
Is Private Surf Lessons in Myrtle Beach worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 66 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 32 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Myrtle Beach, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Surf Lessons in Myrtle Beach?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private Surf Lessons in Myrtle Beach suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Surf Lessons in Myrtle Beach?
+
Around 11 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Myrtle Beach can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Myrtle Beach and add a light layer if any part of the 1.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Surf Lessons in Myrtle Beach start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Myrtle Beach within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Myrtle Beach?
+
Myrtle Beach runs dolphin cruises, deep sea fishing charters, helicopter flights over the Grand Strand, and low country day trips to Charleston and Brookgreen Gardens. Charter boat size and included gear are the deciding factors offshore. On Outty we rank every Myrtle Beach experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Waccamaw River Nature and Wildlife Tour, The Escape Game at Broadway at the Beach in Myrtle Beach, Music and Memories at Greg Rowles Legacy Theatre. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Myrtle Beach?
+
April to June and September to October. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Myrtle Beach?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
