Our instructors were excellent. We were all beginners, ranging in age from 10 to 44 and they got all of us up on the boards right away! Very fun experience, would highly recommend!
We’re thrilled to hear that your group had such a fun and successful experience! It’s wonderful to know that our instructors were able to make everyone feel comfortable and confident, from the youngest to the most experienced member of your group. Getting beginners up on the boards and enjoying the experience right away is exactly what we hope for. Thank you for your recommendation and for choosing Native’s Way. We truly appreciate your kind words and hope to see you all again for another adventure in Costa Rica. Pura Vida, Native's Way
Recently visited Costa Rica for a girls trip (all of us in our 40s), 3 of us decided to take surf lessons. We booked through natives way and did a 2-hour lesson with Ronaldo. He was absolutely amazing and had 2 of us standing up on our boards riding waves in no time (the 3rd decided to be our photographer). He was so patient and kind and you could really tell that he enjoyed what he did. This was probably the highlight of my trip and I am so grateful that we had Ronaldo as our instructor!
It sounds like you had an unforgettable time on the waves! We’re so happy to hear that your surf lesson with Ronaldo became one of the highlights of your Costa Rica trip. Getting two of you standing up and riding waves during your first lesson is fantastic! Ronaldo’s patience, kindness, and passion for what he does clearly made a difference, and we’ll be sure to share your wonderful feedback with him. Thank you for choosing Native’s Way to be part of your girls’ trip. We hope you’ll be back in Costa Rica for more time on the waves! Pura Vida, Native's Way
Excellent experience ! Ronaldo was a patient and helpful instructor, my friend and I had a blast! Would do again.
It was my first time surfing and was not disappointed. Annie was a good teacher! Of course, as a beginner, I had struggle but finally could stand on the board thank to her advices :)
WE LOVE RONALDO !!! Had such an amazing time surfing. It was all of our first times and he was a great instructor who supported yet also challenged us. Would try again and again
Annie was our instructor and was amazing! After a short walk from the shop to the beach she made she we had our positioning down and felt confident in the water
My new wife and I took private beginner surf lessons. The instructors were young and friendly, and knowledgeable. We did dry land practice then surfed. We managed to get up quite a few times! Waves were smaller that day, perfect for beginners. A lot of fun. Oh btw I'm 67 and my first time surfing and with bad knees. If I can do it you can too! Go for it!
Very nice activity, excellent for beginners. The waves are soft, but still allow for easy surfing. Our guide Ronaldo was very friendly and took the time to help all the members of the group (we were 4). Water bottles and rashguard sweaters provided. The beach is large and the water is beautiful, some rocks are to be watched in some places. Very nice way to maximize a visit to the city of Tamarindo!
This was a great experience. David and Ronaldo were patient and excellent teachers. All five family members were successful in surfing - ages 29-65! Would highly recommend to a friend.
So much fun and help! The instructors were great and provided newer tips as this wasn’t our first time surfing. Water and waves were perfect for beginner and intermediate surfers. A bit busy but that’s the holidays for yah.
