Lesson Information

OC Foil offers professional eFoil lessons year-round throughout Orange County and Southern California. Lesson availability is based on weather and tide conditions to ensure a safe, smooth, and enjoyable eFoiling experience. Higher tides provide the best conditions for Fliteboard lessons, especially in shallower areas. For safety reasons, lessons are not conducted when tides fall below 1 ft.

With access to multiple lesson locations across Orange County, OC Foil can adjust launch sites to ensure optimal water depth and conditions for every eFoil lesson.
