Learn the joys of surfing in NYC’s backyard
Dawn Patrol Surf offers surf lessons at Rockaway Beach right in New York City’s backyard
A high-quality surf coach dedicated to helping you unlock your potential
Danny Nuñez, an accredited surf instructor with over 20 years of surf experience, started Dawn Patrol Surf to help bring more people into the ocean. Dawn Patrol Surf offers extensive and thorough lessons for surfers at any level. Danny’s comprehensive lesson starts with a land tutorial covering the physical aspects of surfing (i.e. the pop-up, paddle technique, and duck diving or turtle rolling), safety, ocean knowledge, hardware, and everything else specific to the sport, before moving into the water.
Surfing can be enjoyed by all students with different physical abilities and experience levels, and from different walks of life. Whether it’s your first time catching a wave or you’re a more advanced surfer trying to navigate the line-up, you’ll be sure to have a swell time at Dawn Patrol Surf.
“Danny gave me clear instructions before I got in the water, and after each ride. I was able to stand and paddle into my own wave by the end of the lesson.”
