Ocean Cure has an impressive outreach surf program. We offer charity surf camps for medically fragile and at risk children including those infected with HIV, Autism, and Cerebral Palsy to name but a few. We also donate time, money, and equipment to various other surf charities such as Surfer's Healing and Life Rolls On. We at Ocean Cure believe strongly that the ocean has powerful healing properties and that learning to surf can have a positive affect on a person's physical and emotional health and well being.

When we donate surf lessons or surf camps to particular groups or individuals, Ocean Cure provides all the funds necessary to make it happen. Ocean Cure works directly with Wilmington’s number one surf and kiteboard school Indo Jax to provide participants with all the necessary equipment and instructors to make the surf experience fun, safe, and uplifting. We also leave each student with a little gift upon completion of our surf course, all at no cost to them.

Ocean Cure is able to do this through generous donations from individuals and businesses that contribute to our charity surf programs. Ocean Cure is a non-profit and your donations are tax-deductible.

We review and reply to all requests.

A note about safety

Watersports such as surfing and kiteboarding can be a dangerous endeavor. Changing weather and surf can make the ocean unpredictable. At Indo Jax safety is our number one concern. All lessons will include an in-depth ocean safety and stretching/ fitness component before ever entering the water. We use soft foam boards with soft flexible fins for our surf lessons to ensure the safety of our students. Our intermediate and advanced kiteboard lessons will utilize our jet ski to follow our students. We take no risks when it comes to student safety, so there is always a chance a lesson or camp may be rescheduled in the event of unsafe conditions. All of our instructors are certified in CPR, lifesaving, first aid and have extensive ocean safety knowledge and lifesaving abilities. We are fully insured and keep our student to instructor ratios as low as necessary to ensure the safety of our students.
