Our surf lessons are 2 full hours. We'll start on the beach and get you comfortable with the basics of learning to surf. When you're ready, we'll get in the water! To begin with, we'll just surf the whitewater and replicate the surf movements we learned on land in the waves. When you've got that nailed, we'll start moving out to the green waves and you'll be surfing like a pro.

At all times you'll be close to Leandro and his team, and within sight of the lifeguards.
