Perfect Day Surf Camp at Manhattan Beach offers a beach-centered summer program focused on surfing, ocean awareness, and outdoor play. The atmosphere is friendly, energetic, and welcoming, making it easy for kids to feel comfortable whether they are stepping on a surfboard for the first time or already catching waves. Instructors combine clear guidance with encouragement, helping campers build skills without pressure.
Daily surf instruction is the heart of the program. Campers learn paddling, popping up, balancing, and reading waves, with lessons adjusted to individual comfort and ability. Small group instruction allows instructors to give steady feedback and hands-on support in the water. When conditions are right, campers spend extended time practicing and enjoying the surf.
Between water sessions, the day is balanced with beach games, sand activities, and downtime to relax and socialize. This rhythm helps kids stay energized while enjoying the full beach experience. Ocean safety and respect for the environment are woven naturally into daily activities.
The camp appeals to kids who enjoy being active outdoors, love the beach, or are curious about surfing. Younger campers gain confidence through structure and close supervision, while older campers appreciate longer water time and the chance to refine technique and independence.

Safety is a top priority at Perfect Day Surf Camp. All surf sessions are led by trained, experienced instructors who closely supervise campers in and out of the water. Before entering the ocean, campers receive explicit instruction on wave awareness, board handling, and beach safety.
Group sizes are kept manageable so instructors can monitor each camper’s progress and comfort level. Activities are adapted to ocean conditions, and instructors remain nearby at all times to offer support or step in when needed. Surf equipment is used only during supervised sessions.
Emotional safety is equally important. Campers are encouraged to try surfing at their own pace, knowing that falling and trying again is part of the process. The supportive tone helps kids build confidence while staying safe in a dynamic ocean environment.
The activities program at Perfect Day Surf Camp is centered on surfing and classic beach fun. Campers spend a significant part of each day in the ocean, learning and practicing surf skills through guided instruction. Lessons focus on safety, technique, and confidence, helping kids enjoy the water while improving steadily.
Between surf sessions, campers take part in beach-based activities that balance the day and keep energy high. These activities allow time to relax, socialize, and play while staying engaged outdoors. Schedules are flexible and adapt to ocean conditions, ensuring campers get the best possible surf experience.
The program encourages resilience, independence, and respect for the ocean. Campers learn through hands-on experience, supported by instructors who emphasize effort and progress over perfection.
