Why We’re Different

When we began Surf Hatteras we truly believed that we were offering something unique, and ever since, this fact has been overwhelmingly confirmed by the testimonies of campers and parents.

Like so many, our first inspiration was a simple love for surfing, an experience that we wanted to share with the next generation. But we noticed that something wasn’t quite right with summer surf camps. Somewhere along the way the organic adventure of learning to surf among family and friends was traded for the now all-too-familiar scene of overcrowded day camps fighting for tiny waves in confined spaces. Sure, it’s still fun. But there is so much more! So we set out to do something different.

This was our formula: Smaller groups. Better waves. Epic location. Overnight sessions. Top-notch staff. Creative activities. Great food. Comfortable lodging. Serious about safety. Ridiculous about fun. This is Surf Hatteras.


A Note From Our Directors

Ross and Hannah Byrd

Just starting to explore summer camp options? We know it can be an overwhelming process, but you’ve come to the right place! We hope you’ll find this website a helpful introduction to our camp, but please don’t hesitate to call or email us with further questions you may have. Sending your child away to camp is a big decision (even just for a week!), and we would love to get to know you and talk with you more about it. We look forward to hearing from you!Ross & Hannah
