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!

We had a great time on our weeklong surf camp with Tortugas! Mike was super responsive and easy to coordinate with, and the apartment was comfortable and perfectly located for us and in a quiet neighborhood that was convenient to downtown. He gave great recommendations and helped us learn a lot about both surfing and Costa Rica. As beginners, surf in Jaco was a little big when we were there in June, but we always felt in good hands with our instructors (Laote and Justin). I particularly appreciated the 1:1 training as we got a lot of feedback and opportunities to catch waves. In addition to great instruction in the water, we really appreciated the dry land training components, such as balance exercises, and the apnea training. It was a well rounded approach that helped us build skills and comfort with all aspects of surfing.

Great experience! Instructor was very helpful and had us riding a wave safely in no time.

This was so much fun & a unique/private tour. My husband, I and 9 year old went on this SUP tour. Mike and the pooches were great. Mike gave us clear instructions and was kind and helpful if he noticed we needed guidance. We paddled to a quiet and remote part of the island where we saw pufferfish and mantarays in the bay. This was a sunrise tour so the way back was absolutely beautiful. The water was clear and the natural beauty was amazing. (P.s. my daughters favorite part was Ambar and Osa.) Mike is very friendly and knowledgeable- if we return to CR....maybe we can try surf lessons with him!

Thank you Mike and Lumi!! The surfing class was perfect and really fun!
