Eric Coulson demonstrates his skills.

Eric Coulson had the sands of time at his fingertips growing up on the golden shores of Sandbridge. His love of the tides' free ride led him to become a surf instructor and open Surf & Adventure Co., retail shop and home base for his tours and surf camps.

Girls, boys, adults, beginners, experienced ... Eric sees quite a mix of interest in his adventures. The surf camps include a two-day girls-only. Kayak tours of the peaceful waters of Back Bay National Wildlife Refuge offer a chance to appreciate the wildlife as many others will not. Sea kayaking the Atlantic affords dolphin watching and maybe even a close encounter with a sea turtle or pod of whales. The Sunset Dinner Tour concludes at Blue Pete's, where you can enjoy seafood or steak and talk about the adventure getting there.

"... Ocean waves are like a visible energy coming towards you and it really is a free ride." - Eric Coulson
