Excellent

Really good. The instructor was great with my nine-year-old daughter, he was patient and spent over two hours with her helping her learn to surf. She had the best time ever.

Family fun!

What a fun experience! We were a family of 4 and even though the weather was not the best, the guides did a great job! All of us were able to stand up atleast once. It was great, and would definitely recommend !

Large family

We had 6 first time surfers in our family. They did an amazing job, they prepared to have plenty of instructors on hand who spoke English enough to communicate effectively with our kids. Speaking of, our 4 older teen to adult kids had a blast. Thank you again for a wonderful morning surf.

Great instruction with no store front

The location is just on a beach under and awning with a few surfboards. Just one instructor when we were there but he was fantastic. Didn't do a lot of explanation initially just got you in the water quickly but did stay the whole 2 hours was a great instructor. Both are ladies were able to get up and surf and had a great time. No place to wash off your feet. No lockers. They just watched the stuff for you.

It was a great experience. It was one of our plans for our family vacation. 3 of us, 3 different ages and 3 different levels. Still they made it totally smooth, our son was surfing and my husband and I got to stand on the board. Lots of fun and personal push! We will look for them again when we go back to CR. Thank you guys

Not worth it

Lesson was supposed to be 2 hours including dry (on land). Mine was in total 1:15 minutes. They did not measure time, the instructor finished whenever other instructors in the area finished although the others started earlier. Instructor spent significant amount of time in the water chatting with another instructor rather than giving feedback. On the plus side, I was able to find them easily on the beach. If I have to do it again, I would go with Iguana surf. We had better experience with them few years ago.
