Our Story

Saltgrass Surf School was born from a simple love of the ocean and a dream to share it with others.

Founders with wooden surfboard

Founded on a Love for the Ocean

Saltgrass Surf School was founded in 2012 by two lifelong friends who grew up chasing waves along this coastline. What started as weekend lessons with friends has grown into a trusted surf school known for our passion, patience, and community.

We believe the ocean has the power to transform lives—and we’re here to help you experience that for yourself.

Safety First

Your safety is our top priority. Our instructors are certified, our gear is top quality, and we teach with care and attention to every detail.

Ocean Respect

We are guests in the ocean. We teach respect for the water, marine life, and the environment that makes surfing possible.

Fun for All

Surfing is for everyone! Whether you’re 8 or 80, first‑timer or seasoned surfer, we create a positive, encouraging experience for all skill levels.

Local Roots

We’re proud to call this coast home. From our saltgrass marshes to our small‑town spirit, we’re deeply connected to this community and committed to keeping it beautiful for generations to come.
