Our ratio of friendly, skilled instructors to students is 1:4, ensuring plenty of individual attention. We offer residents and visitors alike an informative, unforgettable and fun experience. Our youth camps culminate in a pizza party, camp slideshow, and other giveaways including camp tees, discount cards, stickers and free surf photography.

Expert Instruction, Led by Jason Borte

Simply put, nobody is more qualified to operate a surf school than Jason Borte. A Virginia Beach native, he has decades of experience riding waves around the world, both recreationally and professionally. A teacher at heart and uniquely tied to his home, Jason loves sharing his passion with eager students. “My local spot was, is, and always will be First Street Jetty,” Jason says. “Everywhere else is a novelty.”

What people are saying

Both of my twins attended Jason’s camp and it was such a positive experience for them! The team was caring helpful and top notch professionals. The twins were getting up and riding waves in what seemed like no time! I highly recommend the camp! Guaranteed good time!

As someone who grew up attending the camp, to later becoming an instructor, this camp enhanced my love for not only surfing but the ocean as well. Jason is not only a great surfer, but a great person. Would recommend attending this camp to any and everyone. This camp has afforded me some of my best childhood memories!

My children have attended Jason's surf camps every year since they were 6 years old, the oldest is now 14. The kids have a great time, learn surfing skills, as well as vital water safety techniques. As parents we are very comfortable knowing they are in great hands. Our oldest even hopes to work at camp in the coming years.

I have known Jason over 20 years and grew up surfing with him, not to mention he helps out with a couple different camps. One involves individuals who are paralyzed and others that also have to use a wheelchair. He is always a great teacher and surfer.
