Stand Up Paddle Board Surf Lessons FAQ

Everyday California uses Tower Inflatable SUPs. They are 10’4”, and weigh 25lbs.
Up to 400lbs
We've had tons of people who have never kayaked before and don't know how to swim that had amazing experiences. However, if your activity includes snorkeling, then by state regulations you do need to be comfortable in the water.
The age restriction for kayaking is 5 years and older.
We have lockers available for rent (they're $6) if you want to leave your stuff behind. If you don’t want to rent a locker we recommend keeping your valuables in your car.
We recommend wearing beach attire: a swimsuit, t-shirt, maybe a light windbreaker. Also, depending on the temperature of the water and how much wind is present, we might recommend a wetsuit—bring your own if you have one or you can rent one from us.

Reviews

  • We're newbies to Stand up Paddleboarding, but the crew at Everyday California made us feel like pros!
    They welcome everyone with open arms, and build a trust with all customers. They take you round back, show you a map of the beach and best spots to peruse while out on the ocean. Since the SUP boards are massive, they built some genius dollies to help transport your gear over to the beach.

  • Our instructor was super chill, knowledgeable and fun.
    He showed us the ropes around SUP on dry land and didn't leave us out of his sight as we were paddle boarding in the ocean for the first time. Thanks again for this awesome experience!

  • I had so much fun!
    This was my first time paddle boarding (SUP). I had a private lesson with Janek who was very professional, thorough and patient with me. I had so much fun and actually was able to stand up on the board! Everyone was very professional and friendly in the shop as well. Thank you for a great experience. I will be back next time I’m in La Jolla.

  • Absolutely recommend
    The staff is very kind, and the paddleboarding experience was fantastic! I went out there with my kids, and they loved seeing the leopard characters and other sea life. I can’t wait to do it again.

  • An incredible experience!
    I’ve been on an SUP before but decided to take a lesson and it was so worth it. The instructors are super knowledgeable about the area and make sure you have a good time.
