I don't surf, it's a bit tricky to learn when you come from a county surrounded by land :)

San Antonio isn't on the coast. You'll have to go to Corpus Christi, or Padre Island and charter a boat there.

I don't know how big waves you like to board, but I'll give you the rundown.  On O'ahu, there is always North Shore.  I'll tell you, you're going to be fighting the crowds though.  Everyone is trying to get in a photo mag and show their shit, so I'd avoid the popular spots (like Backdoors, Pipeline, etc).  There are plenty of places up north to surf that are less crowded.  Pull on the side of the road just about anywhere during a big swell and you'll find spots.  \n\nOn the east side there is Makapu'u and Sandy Beach.  Makapu'u gets some NNE swells and is monsterous at times.  I was in the water for a 12 foot local scale set and I about shit myself, mainly because it's a closeout on the beach.   However, most of the time it is not like this but of a decent rideable size.  Sandys is the same way, although somewhat smaller.  I don't like it here because it's always crowded, but don't let that hold you back.\n\nOn the west side, there's Tracks and Makaha, but both are predominantly surf spots.  Basically, if there are waves, you can find a spot.  Even in town on goood days you can go to Bowls or Kewalos.  \n\nAs for the other islands, on Maui there is Suicides, Makena, and Ho'okipa (among hundreds of others).  On the Big Island, most people go to Hapuna, Kua Bay, Makalawena, or one of the tourists spots in Kona.\n\nHappy hunting!

Ocean Beach is probably the easiest place to get to, but be sure you give the locals their space.\n\nCheck out Surfline.com's map of surf spots in the Bay Area. Lots of options, as long as you have a good wetsuit.

yeah, i have no clue where Dobbs Ferry is but i've found that rec kayaks don't work so well in open water...i recently went down the Susquehanna in a 9 footer...it was good to navigate around rocks and stuff, but wind and current make it kinda difficult when the river widens.  I would recommend renting (or buying) a touring kayak instead.

You have a variety of options:\n\n1. The newest thing is a place in Huntington Beach called Pravda Surf http://www.pravdasurf.com You know those places where you can brew your own beer or make your own pottery? It's like that. The guy's name is Valentin Shmidov. For around $325 he'll walk you through the entire process, all materials and tools included. He's featured in the May 2006 issue of Surfing  Magazine. \n\n2. You can simply walk into you local surfshop and ask them. Try to find someone older, and not one of the annoying punk kids. They should be able to connect you with one of their shapers or point you to some books and DVD's which walk you through the process.\n\n3. OR, you can take the DIY approach. Clear some room out of your garage, buy a planer and some blanks, and start blowing foam dust! There are some good books/DVDs available, as well as this wonderful tutorial from Surfline and Dave Parmenter http://www.surfline.com/mag/features/how_to_shape/ It has step-by-step instructions and tons of great video clips. \n\nHave fun!!!

Everyone knows that coastal Delaware and Maryland are known for their ski resorts.  I would go to Snow Hill, Maryland which is just west of Rehobeth Beach.  You could also go water skiing but no, that's another whole different thingie.

Find a relatively large body of water. A creek, river or lake. Trout should be there.
