My 3 kids loved their surf lesson with Tortuga Surf Camp. They were all able to stand on their board pretty quickly and said it was one of their favorite moment in Costa Rica!
My son and I had a great experience. The instruction was excellent and transformative in terms of advancing our understanding about surfing and water as an element. This is super important to build a proper foundation as it will lead to a positive experience with surfing and water that can last a lifetime. If you’re planning a surf trip as a beginner or a pro-Jaco and Tortuga Surf Camp can provide it all! My son was fired up about catching his first waves which made it worth the trip by itself.
The guys at Tortuga Surf are amazing instructors. We had a blast surfing with them. We learned more in just a two hour class than any other surf instructions we have had previously at other locations. They are very knowledgeable and were so patient with both our kids (and us adults!). If you are planning on surf lessons in Jaco - Tortuga Surf is the place to go.
My wife, daughter and I took a private lesson with the Tortuga surf School. We all had a great time. Each of the coaches were helpful and adapted to the progression of each of us. We all ended up being able to surf as beginners halfway through the class!
Good times!
