How Hampton Surf School Was Born
Hampton Surf School was founded with a simple goal: to share the joy of surfing with our local community and summer visitors alike. What began as a few boards and a passion for the ocean has grown into a full-service private lesson experience rooted in energy, safety, and fun.
Born and raised in New York, our founder spent summers riding waves in the Hamptons and wanted to create something that brought that same thrill and connection to others—whether you’re standing up for the first time or refining your skills.
Our Mission
At Hampton Surf School, our mission is to create meaningful, high-quality surf experiences that go beyond just riding waves.
We’re here to make surfing approachable, safe, and unforgettable — for everyone from first-timers to seasoned riders. Every lesson is rooted in three values: connection to the ocean, confidence in the water, and joy in the process.
Through personalized coaching, local knowledge, and a deep love for surfing, we aim to build not just skills — but lifelong memories.
Why We Surf
There’s something magical about riding a wave — it connects you to nature, pushes your limits, and reminds you to live fully in the moment. At Hampton Surf School, we don’t just teach surfing — we share a connection to the ocean.
Expanding Our Vision: Surf to Court
After building Hampton Surf School around a simple mission — bring great instruction to great people in the Hamptons — we saw an opportunity to serve our clients beyond the water.
Many of our surf families were also passionate about tennis and pickleball, so we launched Hamptons Pickle & Tennis to offer the same high-quality, flexible, and personalized experience on land.
We bring professional instructors directly to your home court across Southampton, Bridgehampton, Sag Harbor, and East Hampton, offering private tennis and pickleball lessons for all ages and skill levels.
Whether you're catching waves or chasing a ball, our focus is the same: Reliable scheduling, great teaching, and a fun, premium experience tailored to you.
