FAQs

What are the age requirements?

Surf Rescue Team is open to kids aged 8-16.

What is the Instructor to Student Ratio?

Our Instructor to Student ratio is maxed out at 1-10. This ensures safe and productive teachings and not letting anyone slip through the cracks!

Do participants need prior surf or ocean experience?

No, you are not required to have any prior ocean experience. You do need to know how to swim well to pass the swim test and we will build upon those skills.

What are the drop-off/pick-up procedures?

For drop-off & pick-up please arrive 15 minutes early. Enter from the North on Ocean St, be ready to unload/pickup at the top of the Carlsbad Village Drive Stairs, and Exit eastbound on Carlsbad Village Dr. There is also free parking in the area if you would like to park and come hang out!

What will you do if there is bad weather?

Rain or shine, we will be able to operate and continue with our program. If there is lighting we will remain out of the water for an hour after the last strike or until lifeguards advice it is safe to enter.
