Trying to learn to surf. I live in florida.?

Question

Okay so i live in Riviera Beach, Florida. And i want to learn to surf. Does anyone know who or were i can find lessons. And also a good place to catch waves? If its close, that is freakin awsome. But i dont care if its far away also. (lol but i prefer close). So answers please, if you may.

Answer 1

I used to surf central and northern florida.  The best spots up north are the jax beach pier and mickler landing in ponte vedra.  The best spot on the east coast is easily sebastion inlet but that is still a bit of a drive.  After you learn your best bet is to drive up the A1A and stop wherever you see a break.  As far as other spots and lessons try this website.  http://www.surfline.com/home/index.cfm
