Jax Surf & Paddle

I signed up my three children for lessons this past weekend; my children are 20, 18, & 13 (nearly 14). The care that was taken by the staff helped assure my children as they have never surfed before. They were taught safety & basic skills before even entering the water. Once in the water, they received corrections that helped two of my surfers to actually fully stand & ride for a bit. My 18 year old has a broken big toe, so finding balance was a bit harder for him. He was nearly up a few times. Following the session, they were taught to care for the equipment properly. We booked a second session immediately after the kids changed into their dry clothes. My daughter ended up being the only one of my crew to take the second lesson due to my oldest having sun poisoning (we left surf lessons and spent the remaining daylight on the beach). However, my daughter learned even more the second day. While they learned a lot in the 60 min session, I highly recommend 90 minutes for the first lesson. The kids enjoyed it so much they want to come back again. Amazing customer service in the shop as well. All around, amazing staff.

Took my wife to the beach for her birthday. She stopped in here and got an espresso martini and raved about it all day long. The bartender was so nice to her and her friends. 10/10 would recommend!

Jax Surf & Paddle (Bodega bar), is easily my favorite place on Earth to enjoy a coffee or other beverage. Not only is every employee welcoming and fun, but the people who go there will brighten your day. The small bar ensures you'll be welcomed and engaged in good conversation. Since moving to the area, I've met many life-long friends here. Cant recommend JSP any more highly.
