Highly recommend

I had such a great experience with this surf school, especially thanks to Alex! He was incredibly kind, fun, patient, and knowledgeable about the waves. As a complete beginner with zero swimming skills, I was pretty nervous at the beginning, but Alex made me feel safe and comfortable from the very start. He professionally led the class, explained everything clearly, and always prioritized safety in the water while still making the lesson fun and encouraging. I really appreciated his positive energy, patience, and ability to make a beginner-friendly class feel exciting rather than intimidating. I left feeling much more confident and with such a fun memory! Highly recommend this surf school. Thank you, Alex! 🏄‍♀️🌊

Surfing‘s fun as hell

Instructor was very nice and helpful. The On-Land Theory was kept short so we could head for the water more quickly. And even though it was my first time I could ride a some waves already:)

Great surf school!

Alexi was a fantastic instructor! He was informative, attentive, and easy going. We had 4 people in our group and he was great at triaging who needed help and when to give us each a great experience. He was committed to getting every person to ride waves. I would definitely return for another lesson!

Super fun

We did the beginner class and had a great time. First they explained how to move on the board and then we put it into practice in the water. It was amazing how much fun we had. It is a highly recommended activity!

Amazing experience!

This was my first time surfing and it was amazing! We had originally booked 2pm lesson but they suggested to move it to the next day due to too big waves. Apparently the morning waves were good enough for beginners and they were able to keep the lesson the same day at 12pm eventhough they only had an hour to arrange it. Thank you for that! The instructions and the help of the teacher were so good I was able to stand on my third try and caught many waves during the lesson. The other three members of our group of four were very happy with the lesson aswell. Two of us were more experienced and they got good tips for their skill level.
