Great surfing with individualized instruction - We enjoyed a great lesson with Richard. We were a family of 5 with little experience. He had an extra instructor help out since we had various levels, and they worked with each of us to successfully get up on our boards. They adjust our start time according to the waves, which helped ensure a more enjoyable experience. Would highly recommend, had a great time!!

Great Time! - This was by far one of our favorite activities during our Costa Rica vacation! The location was beautiful and the waves were perfect! Instructions were super easy to follow! If I can catch a good wave or two, you definitely can!!

Must do activity - My boyfriend and I had a wonderful time, it was our first time surfing so we weren’t sure how well we would do but the amazing instructor made it so easy and fun for us.

Experience of 10 - Richard taught us how to surf from scratch, he was super attentive and without him we wouldn't have been able to do anything, a brutal experience!

Best experience ever! - I loved how positive and supportive Richard is! I was very nervous all throughout but he was nothing but supportive of my efforts. He lightens the mood with jokes and smiles and made my friend and I feel like we were going to be pro surfers at some point lol! The waves were intimidating at first and I could barely catch a wave but he kept pushing for me to go and saw the potential I had. Now I want to surf all over again! He made every moment worth and I am so excited to book again!

Great Surfing Experience - It was my first time surfing and this was such a fun intro lesson. I was hesitant at first but Richard and his team made sure that we were well-prepared. Thank you for such a great experience!

A fantastic surfing lesson with Richard! - I recently had an amazing surfing lesson with Richard as my instructor. Richard was not only nice, patient, and encouraging but also incredibly helpful, friendly, and funny throughout the session. His positive energy made learning to surf an absolute joy! Highly recommend for anyone starting out in surfing! I had never surfed before this lesson and was able to get up on the board really quickly

Go with Richard! - Richard - thanks so much for giving us such a wonderful surfing experience. I can't believe that all three of us were able to catch waves even in our first intro class, and how good you were at focusing our attention on the key details and useful skills (and pulling our attention back when we got distracted by other details that don't matter). You are a master teacher - our class with you was one of our favorite memories of our week in Costa Rica. Thank you so much and for anyone reading this - book with Richard now! Pura vida! :)
