2023 Workout Down the Shore

Stacey’s Surf & Paddle

This surf school, from Margate native Stacey Alper, trains newbies of any age to use balance, focus and strength to catch their first wave. Options range from private lessons to kids’ and teens’ surf camps to adult community nights — including a weekly meetup specifically for women. Opt for a sunset or full-moon stand-up paddleboard session if you want to float amid golden-hour rays or moonlight sans catching a wave.
