Overall it was a good experience with some space for improvement on some aspects.
The instructors (especially Ruben) are very communicative and point out all the important steps when you learn how to surf. On the first day there were only 2 instructors but they still managed to give everyone individual feedback on how to improve which is very nice. On the second day there were 3 instructors so smaller groups and more tips and help. If you listen well to them you can learn the basics very fast. Big thanks to Ruben for the great mentorship and guiding us through the big waves. The photographer also did a great job!
On the other hand I was a bit disappointed. I booked the surf camp with YHA Hostel, paying 300$ for 2 nights and 3 days of surfing. When I received the confirmation mail it said 2 nights and 2 days of surfing. I contacted both companies and they were both pointing their fingers at each other. Mojo changed their pricing starting from April 2024 but it is still March so a bit weird that I didn't get the old package. YHA explained that it was 2 days of surfing but 3 days of activities. There were no activities on the first day so I felt a bit betrayed. I understand that its YHA's responsibility to be aware of the package they are selling but Mojo should have communicated this with them as well.
Overall a good experience even though I wouldn't do the surf camp again but just take the surf classes as the instructors are amazing.
