About This Activity
Welcome to the skimboarding capital of the East Coast. Seriously, if you are in Dewey Beach and haven't tried skimming yet, you are missing out on one of the town's biggest pastime. Alley Oop Skim isn't just a place to grab gear; it is the heartbeat of the local skim scene right on Highway One. Whether your kids are total beginners or trying to perfect their technique, this is where they need to be.
Get the kids out of the hotel and into the wash. The camps here are legendary among local families and summer visitors alike. The instructors are pros who actually know how to teach, making sure everyone catches a wave without wiping out too hard. It is the ultimate way to keep the younger crew entertained while you relax on the sand. Insider Tip: These camps are super popular, so try to book your spot before you happen to drive into town.
This team is the real deal. They don't just teach the sport; they host the massive Zap Amateur World Championships of Skimboarding right here on our beaches. That means you are learning from folks who live and breathe the sport. It is not just about standing on a board; it is about understanding the ocean and becoming part of the Dewey vibe.
Stop by their spot on Coastal Highway. You can't miss them at 1904 Coastal Hwy. If you are looking to experience the true "way of life" in Dewey Beach, getting on a skimboard with Alley Oop is the perfect place to start.
