Training & Guidance
New Smyrna Beach is one of the best surf spots on Florida’s east coast. With consistent waves, sandy bottoms, and a laid-back beach town vibe, it’s the perfect place to learn and grow as a surfer. That’s why we created the Surf Check Surf Guide, your go-to resource for exploring the local surf scene like a pro.
Our Surf Guide gives you insider info on the best surf breaks for different skill levels, the right tide windows to hit each spot, and how to stay safe and respectful in the lineup. Whether you’re looking for gentle whitewater to practice pop-ups or want to test your skills on a bigger day, we’ve got recommendations to match your ability.
The guide also covers gear suggestions, seasonal conditions, and helpful hints for navigating the beachside community, from where to park to where to grab a snack after your session. It’s designed to support both our lesson students and independent surfers who want to make the most of their time in New Smyrna Beach.
Think of it as your friendly local guide, packed with everything you wish you knew before paddling out. Check it out before you visit, or ask your instructor for tips in person.
