Accommodations

Participants stay in the heart of Topsail Island. This 26-mile long barrier island has a rich history filled with pirates, fishermen, and surfers.

Campers are housed in our air conditioned, ocean view “Surf Shack.” This epic location, is only steps from where we surf. Campers will see the sun rise over the ocean while checking conditions from their balconies.

The rooms are gender-specific comfortable common areas. Each participant will have his or her own bed. WB Surf Camp staff members are housed on-site and will provide 24-hour, same-gender adult supervision. Campers will enjoy dining together in our very own dining hall.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if I am ready for this camp?

If you can turn and ride down the wave’s face while generating your own speed and flow.

How much time will I spend surfing?

From sun up to sun down, as long as the waves are up, we will surf! Proper breaks for meals, rest, and hydration will be taken in between.

Will there be a photographer or videographer present?

Yes. We will have a staff photographer/videographer on the beach to record sessions. This helps to better analyze and improve your surfing technique. We also utilize Solo Shot technology to capture our sessions.

Can I call home during camp?

We have all campers check in with their parents upon arrival, but we have limited parental contact for the duration of the camp. WB Surf Camp is a growing experience, and we find that young people do best and gain confidence through independence. Campers are NOT allowed to carry cell phones at any time during camp. Any cell phones brought to camp will be collected upon arrival and returned upon departure. Parents will be updated through emails and the many pictures we’ll be posting on Facebook throughout the trip! We will provide an after-hours number to reach the office in the event of an emergency.

How much individual time will I get to spend with my pro coach?

ALL DAY!!! Our guest pro coaches will be present during the entire camp session to assist and coach you during your stay.

Could this help me get sponsored?

Our pro surf coaches  will discuss and highlight what it takes to build a sponsorship resume to help get sponsored.

How long should I stay?

We recommend a minimum of two weeks. We offer supervision and coaching in between sessions so teens get to continue improving their surf skills while staying at our ocean view campus.

Where will I be surfing?

We have private beach access right in front of our accommodations that offers up great uncrowded warm water beach breaks. Water temps will be between 78 – 82 degrees so no wetsuits are needed.

How old are the campers I will be rooming with?

Roommates are grouped together by age and gender.
