More of the same Beautiful weather here at the beach today with more small fun waves around waist high more or less. Wind still light and variable.
Ideal for those learning to surf. Like the family from Lake Elsinore that did the group lessons on Fathers day. Dad was a natural and Mom got a few as well. The show stealers were Haily and Makenzie the 7 year old sisters were putting all there reservations aside and riding countless waves right to sand much like Dane from Texas earlier in the week. Good Job girls!
Even though we still have that morning fog not much to complain about when it’s gone by noon.
See ya soon; Rod

Summers not till the 21st but with Fathers day this weekend and the beach in the 70’s you know it’s here. Even though we did have the morning fog still clinging this am the sun has managed to do it’s job by afternoon this week and hopefully provide more of the same for the days to come.

If your from Houston and your name is Dane; your six years old and showed up for your first surf lesson today in Laguna and amazed people on the beach with some natural skill! Mainly by catching wave after wave right to the sand with a ear to ear grin and a head full of sand for his reward.
Way to go Dane your awesome!
The weather was hot and sunny today with some consistent 1 to 3′ surf perfect for learning. Springsuit weather now or even trunks for you hearty souls.

CA has been doing professional, licensed, certified, private and semi private one on one surfing lessons for people of all ages longer than anyone else in Laguna Beach. Based out of the only full service surf shop in town.
We have the right equipment, experience, technique with local knowledge and understanding of the surf conditions to provide you and your family or friends with a fun learning experience with the best proven instruction methods.
You will be shown the subtle nuances of foot positioning, paddling and most importantly how you can learn to anticipate and read waves while similtaneously manuevering your board to catch it or go through on coming waves.
Our whole philosophy is based on establishing a foundation for our students to build ocean awareness and devolope the skills to be able to reduce the learning curve in a fun safe environment.

Hello everyone! The water has finally started warming up here in Laguna and that means springsuits, bikinis and trunks instead of fullsuits. All the new CA boardshorts for men, women and kids are in as well as the new CA Laguna Beach embroidered string bikinis. Check out our full line coming to CA.net now.
Summer also means updating or repairing the old surfboards. There are tons of new boards arriving weekly and you can always talk to someone about getting the custom board for yourself friends or family. Softboards, londboards, fishes, hybrids, epoxy or traditional we can help you make the right choice.
Longer shop hours are in place seven days a week 8am to 8pm.
