Westport Is All About Family, Community and Surfing
Westport has always embraced surf families from all over the state of Washington. This is what makes Westport special in our minds – you always seem welcome, it’s like going back home to visit the parents, cousins and friends you haven’t seen for years, you know it’s only yours to visit – but you feel like you can stop by any time and feel totally welcome. Surfing is now an important part of the DNA that makes this sleepy coastal town so special – come surf and enjoy all that is Westport and bring the family, they belong here.
Yes, by all means bring the kids, the dog and the neighbors kids. Just make sure you’re prepared for a lot of sand in everything. Thankfully, the new showers have two shower head levels, one high and one low. One level is perfect for an adult – hitting you at head high, the second level is at a perfect height for a 5 year old or dog. Sometimes it looks like a water park with all the kids running around getting more wet and sandy – good thinking WA State Parks, its a hit.
Much of the original Westport Surfing community came from the Northern California City of Santa Cruz – which is steeped in surfing history and tradition. In our opinion, we (BigFoot) owe the Westport surf family pioneers a special thanks for bringing surfing to WA State in a manner that has influenced positive growth for the surfing community as well as attracting surf tourism to the Westport business community.
If you have questions about surf lessons for youth give us a shout – we are trained and certified in adult, child education and sports bio-mechanics. We currently offer private lessons to children and youth from age 7 through 13. We would be happy to offer suggestions to parents who would like to get their children younger than 7 surfing – unfortunately, we are restricted by our insurance terms and cannot offer surf lessons to the 7 and under age group.
Questions? Give us a shout, we would love to say Mahalo BigFoot style: 360-515-7969
