«Best vacation ever»

I had the best time ever in San Clemente! The surf guides are very professional and I never felt unsafe or insecure. They teach you everything. They drive you to very cool surf spots and you are going to be spoiled !!!

It was more than I imaged. After the surf lessons, they still look after you, go out with you, have diner or drinks... Very private and personal.

What Is Surf Guiding?

Surfguides are not teachers. You're not joining a class where you

have to do, what your teachers say. Our guides will bring you to

great Surfspots within our reach. They provide an "on the spot"

introduction to the break and will lead a brief warmup. The guides

are there to offer advice, answer questions, and essentially make

sure you, as the guest, are catching waves and having the best

time possible while maintaing safety in and out of the water.

What Does A Typical Day Look Like.

The Guide picks you up between 06:30 and 10:00 and you drive to the Surf spot: 1 to 2 hours of surfing

The Guide brings you back to the Camp, so by noon you are ready for lunch (unless otherwise you are on one of our scheduled "day trips»

Between 2pm-3pm the Guide picks you up for a second Surf Session.

Your back around 17:00 for some relaxation, yoga, dinner, socializing, sleep and do it all over again

You're An Absolute Beginner:

You can join our guided surf sessions and go for it with the help of

your guide. But we highly recommend to take the Beginner-Class

for $199 (3x2 hours). You learn the fundamentals of surfing from

the first step in the "white water" to your first green wave within 3

days!

You're Already A Surfer

Join the Surf guides! Guaranteed great fun from Orange County to

San Diego and Los Angeles. From the 2 Star Surfer to a 5 Star

surfer we bring you to the right place at the right time daily.

Sunset Surf

Once a week we have a special Sunset Surf. Our Camp Boss

Dave Cinquini brings you personally to his secret Sunset Spot.

After a unforgettable Surf session at a nearby beach, we'll follow it

up with a beach bonfire and bbq courtesy of TheCaliCamp.

“THE Surfcamp”

Well there are surfcamps and there is TheCaliCamp. So let me skip the part about how nice and great California, the hotel and the food was, about the parties in Hollywood, Laguna or Newport or how friendly and welcoming all the people were. Everybody knows that. Everybody expects that. You'll get that here. No worries.

For me the CaliCamp is all about surfing. To my surprise it felt much more being on a surftrip in SoCal with my new buddies than actually being thought how to surf in a surfschool environment. Their teaching methods are quite different as well. There is no such thing as riding soft-tops in crowded white water with hundreds of groms around you. You surf alone. Every day. At a different spot. They'll hunt the best waves for you up and down the southern Californian coast. Local style. I have surfed a little before but haven't really been able to get up on the board when I got to the CaliCamp.

Dave and Riley worked on my stance and timing on the wave while showing me a fabulous time in California. It has been incredible. And in case I was tired and wanted to go skydiving or jet skiing for a day while getting my sore shoulders a massage, those boys got it done. They treated me like a king and I am pretty sure Dave can pull rabbits out of his hat, even though I haven't seen him doing that. After 4 weeks of hardcore surfing and constantly pushing my limits they got an Austrian (!) snowman like me barreled.I don't wanna use stereotypes, but that doesn't happen very often. Incredible job boys. I never thought that this day would come.

So regardless if you want to push your surfing to the maximum or if you are just looking for a nice and easy going vacation and catching some waves, the CaliCamp is surely the place to be in California. Unchallenged.

Want to surf with locals

who rip? Hers surf guide RILEY laying into one

at Trestles.

7 years ago, I went on a surf trip with some friends to Indonesia where I was introduced to the first “surf guides” I’d ever met. To me they had the best job in the world. I came home from the trip ready to look for my new job as a surf guide here in California. The problem was that there was simply nowhere to apply for this “job”. I

quickly found out that there were no surf camps for adults and the job of “surf guide” was just a thought and not a reality. For years it drove me crazy and I wondered if it could really be done.... So the lightbulb went off and many years later, and many odd twists and turns I met Daniel here in California.

I had spent the last few years in Bali working in and around a great surf camp. So when Daniel arrived and we met, he was ready for a new journey and you’d better believe I was ready to make it happen all this time later. Daniel, Riley and myself set into a series of tasks, put our heads down and came up with TheCaliCamp. California’s first surf camp for adults. Thanks to all of my partners and of course ALL of the guests who have helped carry us into another great year. To big things and big dreams :) Cheers

Dave and I had never met before - but I know we are going to open a surf camp together.

After 20 years running my own internet business in Switzerland I thought it`s time to learn surfing for real. I downsized my company and took a half year vacation to learn how to surf. Thailand, Bali, Japan,

Hawaii and finally I arrived in Los Angeles.

As there was no surf camp in Califronia for adults, Tobi – who I meet in Bali – urged me to meet Dave. He told me about Dave's dream to open his own surf camp. As wonderful as my round the world trip was, after a few months I missed doing business. Something I really love besides surfing. When I finally meet Dave . I saw that fire of an entrepreneur in his eyes. He had that dream to create something wonderful. That reminded me when I started 20 years ago.

That was the beginning. The rest you see in our first anniversary magazine. What a great ride.

«Best surftrip ever!»

I spend more than a week in the camp and it was definitely my best surftrip ever!

During my stay there was no day without waves. Every morning the surfguides (Dave and Riley) checked the spots with the best conditions and brought us there, thus we went to spots reaching from San Diego over Oceanside up to Huntington Beach in Los Angeles. Surf was guaranteed! Nevertheless, I loved surfing directly on the pier in San Clemente (closest city to Dhana Point) and spending time in the water until the sunset! Awesome!

So far, I was in some camps in Europe before and never experienced such a friendly, relaxed and personal atmosphere like in this camp. Actually, I didn´t feel being in a surfcamp, but rather hanging out with some friends in California and having a really great time.

I came to the CaliCamp alone, but I left with tons of friends and experiences! Everyone who is interested to live the Californian dream should definitely stop by T h e C a l i C a m p . I h i g h l y recommend it!

I fell across thecalicamp on the internet and was so impressed by the reviews. I have to say my expectations were blown away when I actually went there.

I had an amazing time and it was one of the best trips of my life! Dave and Riley are so friendly and knowledgeable. They are very committed to making sure you feel comfortable and have an amazing time; anything you need and they are there. They not only are great surf instructors but are amazing at taking you enjoy new cities and sites and they know all the great local spots to eat!

This is so much more then just a surf camp! Definitely would recommend and hope to come back in the future!
