Highlights
  • Ebais - Our surf lessons last for 2 hours. We begin with 30 minutes of theory on land, where we discuss surfing at your level, safety, your goals for the lesson, practice movements on land, and warm up before heading into the water to catch waves. Our lessons are tailored to your comfort and enjoyment, ensuring you have the best time. It’s all about having fun!

Our lessons include all necessary equipment. Just bring water, sunscreen, and your swimwear. We have experience teaching children as young as 3 years old. For safety, all children under 6 require a private instructor. If you’re an experienced surfer and wish to surf at a more challenging break in the area, please inform us in advance. We can discuss your goals and customize the lesson to your level. We have male and female instructors who speak English, Spanish, and Swedish. We will contact you in advance to schedule your lesson based on the high tides and conditions for that specific day. If you would like pictures or videos of your lesson, please let us know in advance.

What's Included
  • Rash-guard and surfboard included in lessons.

Woman-owned and perfect for beginners! - Absolutely fantastic surf lesson from Noldan with photography by (owner Sofie's boyfriend) Rory. All for of us newbies -- Mom and Dad (49 & 50) and two girls (18 & 16) -- got up quickly with help from Noldan and rode wave after wave into the beach. The guys were super friendly with great English and excellent teaching style. Thank you for an unforgettable morning!

Best Surf instruction in Samara! - We had an amazing experience with this tour group! The instructors were incredibly knowledgeable about teaching people to surf. After we listened to instructions and practiced on the sand, the instructor took all 4 of us out to help us with our boards. The end result after 2 hours was that all four of us(never surfed a day in our lives) were able to stand up and surf! If you want to really learn the basics of surfing, this is the perfect place to book;)

Fantastic surfing school with an authentic, boutique vibe - We had an excellent time practicing surfing with Sofie and Rory. They were such great teachers, we changed our plans and returned the following day for another lesson. Our children, who are athletic but had no prior surfing experience, learned to get up on the board the first day, and started to work on basics of turning by the second day. Sofie and Rory are excellent teachers and very kind people: they have a lot of surfing and teaching expertise. Their teaching style is flexible, as any good teacher needs to be, adapting to the needs and experience and personality of each student. We had such a great experience, we would absolutely come back and do surfing lessons again here in the future as our children keep advancing their skills. We strongly recommend checking out this surfing school!

Great first time surfing! - Sofie was great! It was our first time surfing and she was so patient and encouraging with us. She took us out for 2 hours in the ocean. She gave clear explanation and helped us to understand the basics of surfing. We were both able to get up on our surf. It was a very fun experience and I highly recommand booking with Tuanis surf school. She knows a quiet spot were you can learn without being bothered by other surfers. Thank you Sofie! Pura vida 🤙🏻

Sofie was wonderful with our son. - Sofie was amazing with my 8 year-old son. She was very kind and encouraging. We were able to rent a surf board from her the following day without booking a lesson. My son wants to come back to Costa Rica to surf with Sofie.
