My name is Sean Griffin and I am the proud owner of Sean’s Private Surf Instruction, LLC. I’m 36 years old. Born in Charlottesville, VA/grew up in Wrightsville Beach – Wilmington, NC. I went to Wrightsville Beach Elementary, Noble Middle School, Laney High School and UNCW where I received a Bachelors Degree in Business Marketing.
In 2018, the best thing ever happened! I became the father of a beautiful baby boy named Sean the 2nd. He is almost 5 years old now; crazy. He’s an amazing little fella, I love him to bits and am beyond grateful to be his Dad.
When I’m not teaching surf lessons or surfing….I’m enjoying every second with my son (and our Australian Shephard ‘Winston-Dog’). I love skateboarding and riding my bicycle. I love canoes. I love traveling and exploring. I love music, playing music, art, making art; reading, writing; creativity is rad.
My favorite place to travel? Mainland Mexico, Mozambique, South Africa, Colombia and the Andes of Peru probably take the cake. So many amazing places in the world. Favorite type of food? Mexican, hands down!
