Along the broad, sandy stretches of Cocoa Beach you can trade shore routine for the particular physics of a breaking wave — guided, stage by stage, by instructors who tailor the session to individuals or small groups. These lessons are designed for participants ages 6 and up and deliver focused coaching in a controlled, safety-minded format, with wetsuits and lesson equipment supplied and board rental available if you want to keep surfing after your lesson.
