From Costa Rica To The Coast Of Maine

Married couple Luis and Jessi have taught surfing for over 20+ years at their surf school in Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica. They spend summer in New England — where Jessi grew up — and now, they're opening the Long Sands Surf School at The Nevada in York, Maine.

Half DaY Surf Clinic

Designed for people of all ages (5+ — including seniors!) to give you the time, practice, and coaching you need to truly learn how to surf. Our instructors start by explaining the mechanics of surfing, followed by balance-board practice on dry land. Finally, once each student has 1:1 time with the instructor, we’ll start catching (small) waves.

Lessons are daily at 9AM or 2PM.

Long Sands Surf School is open 8AM-5PM from Fridays to Saturdays for walk-in lessons or rentals. Lessons or rentals Monday to Thursday must be booked at least one day prior.
