SURF POINTS IN SHIMODA
Surrounded by beautiful forest, mountains and white sands, Shimoda has some of the leading surf spots in Japan. The ocean water in Shimoda has been verified A-AA by the prefectural water examination committee. Because Shimoda is located at the southern tip of the Izu peninsula, it catches west, south and east swells making it possible to surf all year round. Shimoda is one of the best surf spots in Japan leading to its great popularity.

The Best Summer Ever!!
My two boys, ages 5 and 7, were lucky enough to start surfing lessons in July with Real Surf Shop’s English-speaking and super-friendly owner, Naoto Suzuki. The lessons are a one-stop breeze for me: a quick stop in the Real Shurf Shop to determine with Suzuki-san when the next best surfing day will be, and at the appointed hour Suzuki-san arrives with his brilliant white smile and incredibly friendly and easy manner. He brings along kid-sized wetsuits and surfboards and in a flash they are ready to hit the waves. On a colder day Suzuki-san brought along thicker wetsuits, he clearly gives each lesson a great deal of thought. Each lesson starts with a good warm up on the beach which the kids love, they giggle all through the stretching and twisting moves. Once in the water, Suzuki-san exudes such confidence that the boys splash in after him, desperate to catch that first wave. Suzuki-san is such a natural in the waves that as he rides each wave in with the boys, they beam with pride as though they did it all by themselves.
After each lesson my boys want to know when the next one will be, having watched Suzuki-san work his magic with my sons I am even contemplating giving surfing a try. Even with their lips blue and teeth chattering, I’ve watched my boys beg to go out for ‘just one more’ wave. Not only have they learned the rudiments of surfing but taking surfing lessons has also greatly improved their boogie-boarding ability and overall wave and ocean confidence. Best of all, with the right wetsuit, surfing in Shimoda can be year-round so we intend to continue our surfing lessons right through to winter. If you are looking for a great way to spend the afternoon watching your kids, or looking for a new adventure for yourself, look no surfer than Surf Shop Real’s fabulous instructor/ owner Suzuki-san.

13th and 14th of June 2009.Wonderful surf class by Suzuki-sensei in Iritahama beach.We enjoyed it very much and need to practice more now. Looking forward to going again!Valentine (11 year old) and Ferdinand (12 year old) from France.
I like real surf lessons so much because i got stand up on the board in less that 15 minutes!It never got boring and also my dad is a surfer and he tries to teach me how to surf but I’m scared cause he always tricks me… but now i feel so confident to surf! Lisa(11 year old)
I went to Shimoda last weekend and I had my first surf lesson with real surf.I did 1 hour and a half for 2 days and I really enjoyed it. The teacher from Real Surf made me feel comfortable and was really patient with me.I tried a lot of times to look for surfing lessons, but nobody spoke English, my teacher spoke English very well and it wasn’t hard for me to understand.I learned tons of things in just 2 days!!The way they teach is really awesome, because i wasn’t bored and I never wanted to stop. Real Surf is the best place to learn surfing!!Thank You soooooo much for teaching me!! I really hope I can come back!Nastia
First we learnt on the sand how to get up on a board and then we tried in the sea. I stood up on my first lesson and I want to go again.Laszlo, 6 years old“Suzuki-san from the Surf shop Real has helped me and 7 of my friends learn to surf in Japan. Suzuki-san is the only English speaking instructor we could find in the Izu area – he helped with boards, wet suits (he has large sized wet suits) and lessons. Everyone was surfing by the end of our 1.5 hours lesson! I would highly recommend learning to surf with Suzuki-san from the Surf Shop Real”. “Iritahama is the best beach, it’s clean, not so crowded and has white sand. It takes only 2.5 hours to get to the beach from Tokyo – I think it’s the best beach in Japan”.Melanie (Australian living in Tokyo)
Ich hatte sehr viel Spass an diesem Tag und haette nie gedacht, dass ich schon am ersten Tag alleine auf dem Surfbrett stehen kann. Dies verdanke ich nur dem gutem Lehrer! Da die Schweiz kein Meereszugang hat, muss ich wohl naechstes Jahr wieder kommen ；）Vielen Dank!!!Sarina
Alli schwiezer wo wend surfe , es isch voll luschtig gsie!Miyuki

Faces of Japan ・ Naoto Suzuki
Naoto dosen’t have a scruffy beard,wer paint-splattered pants, or listen repeatedly to the Morning of the Earth soundtrack, but he is living Japan’s version of country soul.He owns Real Surf Shop in Shimoda, which looks like most Japanese surf shop albeit with Andy Davis paintings on the walls and retro boards on the racks. He is a shaper and proudly showed me a titillating mini-alaia. He gives surf lessons, and on a scorching Sunday at an idyllic cove, I watched him push a young Russian girl and a middle-aged Japanese man into turquoise shorebreak. What tied it together for me, though, is the fact that he lives with his wife and two daughters in a house abovehis shaping room and shop, creating a kind of seamless link between family, art, and commerce. Not to mention the three-minute drive through rolling green hills to numerous ricocheting beachbreaks and reeling points. Writer // Jamie Brisick
