Everyone can learn to surf and be Ocean Smart.” The academy has been the official surf school of the City of New Smyrna Beach Leisure Services Department for over 30 years and is known as New Smyrna Beach’s premier surf school. Leadership includes Jimmy Lane, a former World Tour Competitor, pro judge, former pro surfer, and world-renowned surf artist, and JLSA instructor and real estate agent Stephanie Stallard. The program notes that coaches bring years of surf experience, and that the BEAUTIFUL HAMPTON INN on Flagler Avenue is a sponsor.
