warm water, great service and lots of waves - Pura Vida
My son really enjoyed his surf lesson with his instructor John. John did a good job orienting my son and was very attentive throughout and got him on a ton of waves. Everyone I interacted with was great, including Nadine, the photographer and I found the photo package to be a very good deal as well. Would definitely come back.

Fun time for beginners
Great time for inexperienced surfers. Our instructor, John, was wonderful. Very informative, friendly, and knows his stuff about the waves. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. Nadine the photographer was also lovely and got some fantastic shots of us.
