No other learning break in South Florida comes close. We've called this sandbar home for 30 years, and it's still the best classroom on the coast.

William Kimball & the Blue Water Family

In 1996, lifelong waterman William Kimball founded what would become Palm Beach County's most beloved surf school — right here at Jupiter Inlet's sandbar, where the conditions are almost always perfect for learning.

William is the 2020 Eco-Pro Surf Series Masters Champion in Jupiter — a competitive surfer and lifelong waterman who brings elite-level knowledge and genuine passion to every lesson.

William's philosophy is simple: every student catches a wave, laughs a lot, and leaves with a genuine love for the ocean. That commitment to joy and safety has kept families coming back — and sending their own children — for over three decades.
