This was mine and husband’s first time ever surfing and it was such a great experience. Kristhian and Jonathan were so friendly and gave excellent instructions and tips! They were so professional and encouraging- always providing helpful feedback to improve while also pointing out the things we were doing right. We went to a beach in Nuevo Vallarta that was great for beginners with waves that weren’t too big and felt like a great spot to learn since the water isn’t too deep. They answered all my questions about surfing so thoroughly and you could tell they really just wanted you to have a great time, which we did! They even got some GoPro pictures and videos of us which was such a fun touch for remembering the day.
The hotel pickup and drop off was smooth and right on time and they had an umbrella, rash guards, bottled water, and a couple snacks for us at the beach. If you’re looking for a place to take your first surf lesson, you can’t go wrong with Okala Surf School! Such a fun time- 12/10 recommend!
