“Manuel and Flor were amazing surf teachers, so patient, very encouraging and even took videos for me. I booked a private lesson for my three kids and all three were standing up on the board from the first wave and by the end of the lesson they all had a lot of confidence and were begging to have more lessons.”

“Right now should be my lesson. As you can see no one has arrived and no one is answering the phone. That's all you need to know about Nick and his surf school”

“I had a great time in my beginner lesson with the surf school. I have been to many surf lessons and the area/coaching was one of the best I experienced. The lady was kind and a great teacher. Annoyingly I didnu2019t read the details and went to the wrong beach so was a little late, but they were happy to accommodate my late arrival which I am grateful for!”

“Booked a private 2 hour lesson with Nick and his instructor Jesse. The lesson was awesome, Jesse was really patient with us as it was our first time on a surfboard. Clear instruction throughout. Good communication with Nick before and after the lesson clarifying various elements of the session itself.”
