Born and raised on the shores of Babylon, NY, I've ridden the waves of the East Coast since childhood, braving cold winter swells and eagerly awaiting the summer hurricanes. As soon as possible, I embarked on surf safaris, exploring breaks from the Caribbean to California and Central America, Oregon to Oahu, and beyond. With over 45 years of experience, surfing has become more than a passion—it's a way of life. Now, as an instructor, I find immense joy in helping others catch their first wave, sharing in the exhilaration that becomes a lifelong memory. Join me in the surf, and let's make some unforgettable waves together!

"I really enjoyed the session with Thomas. It was a fun and engaging experience that made me look forward to trying more. If you're thinking about learning to surf, his lessons are definitely worth checking out. The positive vibe and clear guidance made it all very enjoyable. Give it a go and see for yourself! 🌊
