This is the second surf/spanish school I have stayed at. I thought the first one was great until I stayed at Oasis. This place is very well run. Communications are clear and quick. The accommodations are beautiful and provide a peaceful escape. It is also well positioned for quick beach access and near several excellent restaurants. Most importantly the difference between the schools is how they approach surf lessons. Oasis instruction philosophy is the far superior school! We were one on one with the instructor in the water with fins not on their own board so they can give you full support. Safety and efficiency of learning are a priority at Oasis. This is a serious school. You will grow your surf skills. Everyone there raved about their surf instructors. But mine had to be the best! Diego was my teacher. I can’t imagine a better guy for the job. He truly cares about your safety and your progress. He was the perfect balance between a cheerleader and hard coach. He’s also funny! I highly recommend Diego!

This was advertised as a half day trip but we surfed for less than 2 hours and were back in town around 9.30am. The surf conditions were poor, and I understand it was meant to get better as the tide got lower. Begs the question as to why we were in a rush to leave so early, and makes it seem as though the guides just wanted to get the trip over with, rather than wanting to get us the best waves.

Hi Cameron, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are sorry to hear that the surf trip did not meet your expectations. The spot we visited is approximately 45 minutes from Puerto Escondido, and from the time we leave until we return, the trip usually lasts around four hours. We understand your point regarding the name “half-day trip” — it may not be the most accurate description since we are normally back before midday, even though the complete outing takes around four hours. We leave very early because this particular beach is often affected by wind quite early in the morning, and conditions can deteriorate considerably as the morning progresses. On the day of your trip, the earlier tide provided the best window for that location. Considering the overall ocean conditions along the coast that morning, our instructors felt this was the best option available, and one of the advantages was that you were able to surf the spot completely uncrowded. The decision to leave when we did was therefore not because the guides wanted to finish the trip early, but rather based on their assessment of the tide, wind, surf conditions, and what they believed would provide the best and safest opportunity that morning. We do appreciate your feedback, particularly regarding how we describe the trip, and we will take it into consideration so that expectations are clearer for future guests.

The guides (Charlie and Ari?) were great. Ran us beginners through a quick “how to stand up on the board” lesson before we set out. I felt prepared for the real thing. I caught 5 out of 5 opportunities for waves and rode all but one to the end and it was my first time! I was worried at first about sharks or it being too much work and I had nothing to fear. Would 100% do again.

Hi Agnieszka, Thank you so much for your lovely review! We’re so happy to hear that you had such a great first surfing experience with Charlie and Abi 😊 Catching 5 out of 5 waves on your very first lesson is amazing! It’s great to know that the introduction on the beach helped you feel prepared and confident once you got into the water. We’re also glad that your initial worries disappeared and that you were able to relax and enjoy the experience. We would absolutely love to have you back for another surf session next time you’re in Puerto Escondido! Thank you again for surfing with us! 🏄‍♀️🌊
