Surfboard rentals – we recommend a 9’0 or 9’6 longboard surfboard, 8′ at the minimum, in the case of the beginner surfer bigger-is-better. Wetsuit rentals – A 5/4ml wetsuit (you will stay warm) is the best choice for surfing at Westport, with an average water temperature of 47 to 53 degrees Fahrenheit – at the least a 4/3ml wetsuit to stay comfortable. While taking a private or semi-private lesson with us we include surfboards for the duration of the lesson only. Our demo surfboards are stable and give us an advantage to delivering a desired outcome. Click Here – For List of Surfboard & Wetsuit Rental Shops.
