Did a walk up and was able to get in without a hassle. Instructor was clear with directions. There was a dolphins sighting while in the water.
The whole crew at A1A were so good to work with! They made it easy to set up surprise surf lessons for my son and his friend. They allowed us to rent to boards even after the lesson. They were decently priced, so we were able to go a second day as well. Will definitely rent from them again when we are back!
Thank you so much for choosing A1A outdoor center for your Cocoa Beach surf lessons! We're grateful for your business and super happy you had an enjoyable experience with us. We do everything we can to make sure our customers have fun. Because that's ultimately what we do, we sell good times. Thank you so much for choosing us while visiting the Cocoa Beach and port Canaveral area.
We had THE BEST TIME! Mark was an amazing instructor, very patient and kind. We all learned to surf and spent the afternoon continuing to practice and learn. Would recommend without hesitation. If you’re on the fence about booking, don’t. JUST DO IT! You won’t be sorry and you’ll be thrilled you did it!
Our instructor was friendly, but he didn't really do much for us. He gave a basic 2 min lesson before we jumped into the water, which was fine I guess. He pushed us onto a couple of waves, but it was kind of felt like we were paying $200 for someone to watch us get beat up by the waves, which obviously comes with learning, but there wasn't much guidance or correcting happening. I felt like I was teaching myself. But when the board strip broke on each board 40 mins into our 120 min lesson, that really ruined the experience... he didn't offer any refund or anything so we just kept using the broken boards. It was a waste of time and energy changing our boards every time we fell off. We were really disappointed. After an hour, I gave my board to the instructor and he just used the last hour riding the waves and getting paid to have fun while I stood and watched on the beach. My husband did okay, but 2 hours was way too long. I wish we were compensated for the broken boards or atleast offered to cut the lesson short for a 50% refund or something. It sucked.
Great communication from this vendor. Easy to find. Brian was patient and capable. Surf was pretty big and my granddaughter was relatively inexperienced. Brian ensured her safety and provided a wonderful experience. Highly recommend
Mark Ferraro was a great instructor. He worked with my daughter and gave her great advice and how to keep getting better at surfing. When my daughter comes to visit again, we will again utilize Viator
No show from A1A outdoors no call finally got a text saying COVID. Hopefully get a refund but heard nothing.
My boyfriend and I had an amazing hour surf lesson with Mark from A1A! He was easy to get in touch with, giving us his personal number so we could call and discuss the weather beforehand. We originally had a lesson scheduled for a Friday, but he called that morning to say the waves were nonexistent and it would be a waste of our time and money to go, so he was able to push it back to a Sunday. He even called us Sunday morning to confirm and let us know the waves would be good! Mark wasted no time at all getting us into the water; we spent a few minutes on shore as he showed us how to pop up into position on the boards, and then got into the water and got right to it! He was very knowledgeable and friendly, and made sure we were able to catch some waves and get our money's worth. He even gave us an extra 15 minutes in the water to give us just a bit longer to practice! He brought the boards to us at the beach local to where we were staying. We were too exhausted from all the surfing after an hour that we didn't rent the boards for the rest of the day, but had we done so, the shop would have come to collect them at our beach when we were finished, so we wouldn't have had to worry about driving them back. We couldn't have asked for a better instructor to make our first surf lesson so much fun!
