HOME TO SOME VERY SPECIAL SURF SPOTS.
Encinitas is a great place to both learn to surf, and to hone your skills on world class waves. D-Street and Swamis are just a couple of excellent choices in town, plus lots of emptier beach breaks only a short drive up and down the coast. Beginners taking Encinitas Surf Lessons may find the waves at Beacon’s, Moonlight State Beach, or South Ponto to be more accessible and spread out compared the more popular and challenging spots. There is a spot for every style of surfer from brand new beginner to experienced ocean dweller. Check out all the options Progressive Surf Academy has to offer for Encinitas Surf Lessons.
CARDIFF BY THE SEA
Just a short drive south is Cardiff, where you’ll find great waves at some well-known spots like Cardiff Reef and Seaside Reef.
On the north end of Cardiff is San Elijo State Beach, which is a good choice for a beginner to take a Cardiff By The Sea Surf Lesson. You can usually find an empty spot here, and there’s plenty of parking right along the cliff. Cardiff also happens to be the home of Rob Machado, so you may find yourself splitting a wave with him on the right day. Check out all the options Progressive Surf Academy has to offer!
