Does Virginia Beach Have Decent Waves For A Beginner To Learn How To Surf?

January 30th, 2010

I live in vb during summer most likely surf is minimal about knee high waves unless some kinda storm or anything forms which we all wish and hope for, but i suggest staying away from 1st street or croatan during summer because its so crowded its hard to learn when everyone and their mom is catching the same wave. so I suggest going to the north end which is basically where the hotels end and the houses begin less tourist are here. Vb vibe is insane there are some form of localism specially at 1st street from obnoxious kids to old long boarders who wont let up and share waves its a joke trying to catch a wave thats all yours at 1st.
Even though you probably heard by now “Virginia Has No Waves” well thats not fully accurate just a couple days ago we had some pretty fun head high waves even though we had a crappy winter season its been pretty fun lately dont know how long it will last, but theres plenty more days of small beginner waves. theres plenty of surf school here if you need it from hotline, wrv to titus and if you need some gear there is 17th street, WRV, corner 24, hotline, and coastal edge at the strip
