Cancun : Mexican Seafood Barbecue Class with Local Chef

Melissa was wonderful! Home cooked comfort on vacation. Very cool cultural experience.

Chef Melissa and Israel welcomed us into their home since the weather was rainy. They were very hospitable and welcoming. Loved the experience. Highly recommend ❤️

Mel and Israel were great host. Food and scenery was awesome. This is not a touristy trip so if you’re looking for something to do off the main path this is a good option.

The beach seafood barbecue cooking class was absolutely unforgettable! The food was amazing—fresh, flavorful, and perfectly grilled right by the ocean. The drinks were fantastic and complemented every bite. What really made the experience special were the spectacular chefs—they were fun, knowledgeable, and made everyone feel like part of the team. Learning to cook seafood in such a beautiful setting was pure magic. Highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting the area!

If you're looking for an unique hands-on experience with fresh seafood and great teaching hosts, this is it. We didn't want to do a basic walking taco tour, but rather something authentic and different. We prepared fresh guacamole, shrimp and snapper (which was brought to our hosts right off the boat) that was grilled on the beach with a beautiful and rustic view. We also were treated to some tasty cocktails and cold beer throughout the afternoon. The food was absolutely delicious, and learning how to use classic Mexican spices and ingredients to create sauces and marinades was an added bonus that we've taken home with us. Thanks again to Chef Mel and her husband for an amazing afternoon and culinary experience!

Melissa's support of the class was beautiful! We enjoyed too much the class and cooking! It’s really top!! Should we come to Her house?

Excellent and delicious experience cooking in front of the sea and tasting exquisite dishes of high quality. The treatment super friendly and fun.

If you’re looking for something different to do in Mexico, this is it! The setup was perfect—the Combi van kitchen was so charming, and the beachside barbecue was an amazing way to learn authentic Mexican cooking. The atmosphere was relaxed and fun, and the food was some of the best I’ve had. I’ll be dreaming about that ceviche and grilled shrimp for weeks!

I had an amazing experience in the barbecue cooking class at Puerto Juarez Beach! The atmosphere was perfect: cooking by the sea with a vintage Combi gave it a fun and unique touch. The instructor was fantastic, sharing great tips and making the experience very enjoyable for everyone. The food was delicious, and the overall atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming. It was a truly unforgettable experience, I totally recommend it to anyone visiting Cancun!

Amazing food on the best stage! ”What an amazing experience! Learning to grill seafood and fresh meats right on the beach was a dream. The vintage Combi gave it a super special touch, and the whole class was fun and interactive. I left with new skills and a full stomach. If you love good food and beautiful scenery, this experience is a must!”
