Great fun! - Lots of fun with a very supportive and informative surf teacher. My teenagers had a great time. Didn’t realize they would watch our belongings or I would have gone as well!

Diving right in for a Peru adventure in Lima! - Was able to pay online in advance so I could leave belongings at home, they offered a pick-up from my stay, all the gear I needed (surfboard, wetsuit, booties for the rocky beach, and most importantly a great instructor - Jorge). Communicated throughout the process and also enjoyed assistance from Hector, Aaron, and Javier for the transfer and gearing up. Definitely made my first day in Peru perfect with this fun way to dive right into a new place and adventure. Highly recommend! I was up and riding baby waves in no time.

"Excellent Instructors Who Instill Surf Confidence" - Pukana Surf School offers exceptional instructors who build confidence from day one. Both my children and I felt at ease, thanks to their patient and encouraging approach. By the end of their first lesson, my children were already catching waves and feeling accomplished. As an intermediate surfer, the instructors at Pukana Surf School helped me refine my pop-up technique, significantly improving my surfing skills.

Wonderful experience - We had such a great time. The instructors are wonderful. They were super great once we hit the water and helped you find just the right wave. They were really great with my younger kids, who had so much fun learning to surf . I would totally do it again.

Super professional instructor (Jorge) - I had a class with Jorge, and cannot recommend him enough. He was very attentive, engaged, he articulated everything very clearly, made sure I was safe on water. As someone not too good with balance, and with drowning experience in choppy water - I’ve managed to be comfortable and to ride every single wave I took at a first go.

Great first surfing experience - We had a great time. The teacher was very friendly, spoke english well, and had us all standing on waves by the end! Our stuff was able to be stored in a vehicle during the lesson which had a person watching over it. They had a person on shore fly a drone during the lesson and took some videos of us surfing for no extra charge (they air dropped them to us after). They provided the surf boards and wet suits. The only reason I gave them 4 stars instead of 5 is because no water shoes were provided and the beach was incredibly rocky which made it very painful to get in and out of the water.
