We will be back

My boyfriend and I really wanted to say Pluma was an amazing instructor. I am a traveler and have experienced plenty of first time things. Pluma stands out, he was so passionate, kind, and genuine with our experience. It is hours later and we’re still reflecting on what he taught and said to us. We feel you should know that he is a great instructor. Thank you so much for the experience, we will be back.

Patient and very pleasant instructor, very complete beginner lesson!

The instructor was very easy to work with and very patient. The system for learning in an hour was really well structured and made it so we had enough to go off and practice independently. When we come back we'd definitely consider booking again because the guy was so good!

Operator response

Thank you so much for this great review Daniel!!! We really love surging and we are very fortunate to share this love and passion with people as nice as yourself. Have a great day and if you ever come back to Tulum, we will be here :-)

Best excursion I’ve ever done

This experience was amazing! The instructor was knowledgeable and so kind. The location was gorgeous. Pluma, thank you so much for your help and for shaping our confidence to surf. But more than surfing, we learned much about life. Surfing was a blast, it was a life long bucket list item for me.

Very fun and challenging!

It was a really cool and fun experience! Mauricio was very professional and taught us a lot about surfing and made sure we were safe and comfortable as well to try new tricks. It's very physically demanding, and it took me a while to learn how to balance myself on the board while my fiance looked like a dolphin on it. Very worth the price and would do it again!

Operator response

Thank you very much for this great review! Surfing was my first passion with the ocean and I am very fortunate because I can share it with people as cool as you :-) Have a great day and if you ever come back to Tulum, we will be here

Mauricio and his team are just wonderful!

Mauricio and his team (Mathis!) are simply wonderful, very professional and fun! My wife took kite lessons and progressed a lot! I also kited in front of their kite school (Ahau Tulum), and we both had a great time! We also travelled one day with Mauricio's group to Isla Blanca for a perfect kiting day. Cheers to Mauricio and his team!

Operator response

Thank you so much for this great review!! It was great meeting the two of you and if you ever come back to Tulum, we will be here 😊. Have a great day.
