Are there any surf tour comanies out of NYC?

Question

Can anyone recommend a company that can pick me up and take me out for a morning of surfing?

Answer 1

They might exist, but I have never heard of any business of that type in 42 years of surfing. Surfing is kind of a 'rugged individualist' type sport, where you drag your own butt to the beach, and then look for: waves, rentals boards, lessons, etc.

There are lots of travel agencies that specialize in surf tours, that is vacations in places like Hawaii, Costa Rica, Mexico et al. But I bet you have to get yourself to the airport with them, too. At lots of those surf resorts, they drive you to the break and bring you home at the end of the session.

If you live in NYC, rent a car, or take an NJT bus to any shore resort in New Jersey, find a surf shop and ask about lessons and rentals. Lots of shops and individual instructors have one day lesson plans, that are fun and informative, and come with everything from a rental board to a rental wet suit (when needed).
