Surfing in Puerto Rico! - Ocean was beautiful (along with unforgiving) and our instructor did a fantastic job! Definitely a great experience and a fun way to learn the basics! We also had an older gentleman in our group so it really is for all ages :)

Fantastic first experience - I had a fantastic time at the surfing class! The instructor was super skilled and patient, and I was able to catch and ride about 10 waves during the lesson. It was such a rush! He broke everything down really well, making it easy to understand the basics. I definitely recommend this for beginners. It was a great introduction to surfing! Later, when I tried on my own, I couldn’t catch a single wave, but that’s all part of the process, right? Can’t wait for the next class!

Great Time! - My partner and I had never been surfing before, and were a little nervous about how strong the waves were. Our instructor put our worries to rest as he showed us how to stand, move, and orient ourselves with the boards and assisted us in catching waves. He was very knowledgeable and made us feel comfortable in the water. We both ended up fully standing up on the boards on our very first lesson! Would recommend.

Surfing w Rey - Rey was an awesome guide. Down to earth and very patient. My girlfriend and I both managed to ride a few waves which that experience alone made it well worth the money.

Great instructor! Easy to learn! - Ray was super fun and informative, we all got the hang of surfing. We got to surf on our own for like an hour and even though the waves weren’t big, we had a great time!

Beautiful Location - The trainer of the class was very good and the location was beautiful. Would not recommend for younger kids (10 & under). There are no life vests available. Also, the water can get really rough which can be intimidating for new surfers no matter the age.

Bad and unsafe. - The experience started poorly, as there was no instructor at the meeting point at the scheduled time. I had to search for him with the help of other tourists, only to find him on the beach, topless, hitting on a girl. It turned out he was completely unaware of our booking. After being informed, he changed into proper gear and started the lesson 20 minutes late. The lesson began on land with brief, useless instructions that lasted about five minutes. There was no effort to ensure that anyone understood the basics, and questions were dismissed with responses like “paddle, paddle, paddle.” Safety protocols were nonexistent, and once in the water, the instructor caused chaos by sending one of our daughters repeatedly into the “downwave” of myself and others, creating unnecessary collisions and frustration. After 20 minutes, none of us wanted any further “help.” We’ve attended other surf classes before, but this was by far the worst experience we’ve ever had.

DO NOT BOOK! This is a scam - This is a scam. Terrible experience. We booked our lesson and called to confirm. They told us when to arrive and we got there early. Nobody was there. We waited for around 2 hours and kept calling and they would say they’re on their way. They never showed up. Two other couples arrived while we were there and had the same experience. Having trouble getting a refund. I don’t think this is a legitimate business, it is a scam! Do not book!
