Fantastic surf lessons with Alvaro - Alvaro was a great surf teacher, very pedagogue, friendly and patient. I loved all the classes. I highly recommend it.

Amazing experience! - Everything was 10/10: the class, the energy, the teachers, the equipment and, above all, the good vibe and willingness of Alvaro and Chimy. I felt super comfortable and motivated. Surely, when I get back, I'm back to school!

Fantastic experience with Alvaro - We took a surf lesson with Alvaro. We were absolute beginners trying surfing for the first time, and I couldn’t have wished for a better instructor. It was the perfect mix of fun, learning, focus, seriousness, and encouragement. Alvaro strikes a great balance — he’s funny and easygoing, yet also focused and serious when it comes to explaining things and making sure you actually learn how to surf. He doesn’t mess around when giving instructions — he’s direct, clear, and to the point, which is exactly what you need when you’re learning something like surfing. We were even able to ride waves on our very first try! It's the best feeling when you ride your first wave and you look back at Alvaro clapping his hands and being proud of you :) In a nutshell: I can’t recommend Alvaro enough. Great guy — 10/10. Greetings from Sophia and Theo!

Wonderful surf experience! - I really enjoyed my surf lessons with Alvaro. I like how he focused on safety and mastering the fundamentals. He broke things down step by step and gave detailed feedback. I learned so much about surfing and felt more confident on the board each day. I would highly recommend!

10/10 surf experience! - I can’t stress this enough - Alvaro is the BEST! As a beginner surfer, trust is paramount. Leaning to surf can be a daunting task, and you are in such good hands with Alvaro and team. The instruction is thorough and tailored to each student’s needs and progression. By the end of my five day trip i had graduated from beginner basics to working on turns, and catching my own waves on a much lighter board. 10/10 experience. Already planning my next trip 🤙🏼

I never want to learn surfing from anyone else! - There is no one better to learn surfing from than Alvaro and his crew! I was a total beginner the first time I had a lesson with them and all the teachers are just amazing. Alvaro is a very thorough and straightforward teacher, and covers everything so you can learn to surf fast but also safely. I’ve been back to take is lessons at Playa Hermosa twice now and I’m already excited for next years trip. They’re the kind of teachers that make you want to get better!

Incredible surf lessons! - Alvaro is the best surf instructor I’ve worked with hands down! I’ve been working with Alvaro for a total of about six weeks over the last five years. His vast experience, patience and passion took my wife and I from complete beginners to surfing out in the line up in three days. Out in the line up Alvaro gives feedback and instructions on reading waves, paddling, line up protocol and safety and much more. All with incredible patience and a true desire to help you become a surfer. My son and I just spent 9 excellent days with Alvaro. In that time my son went from catching knee high waves to catching over head waves and beginning to make turns on them. My son fully trusted Alvaro 100%. The best thing about Alvaro is that he truly cares about helping his clients become surfers. I highly recommend him!

Incredible Surf Experience - Alvaro and his team were absolutely incredible. We had a group of 8 novice surfers ranging from 8-50 years olds. The kids and adults had an equally great time. We had a max of two students to one teacher, and often 1 on 1 for when someone needed additional focus. This was my 4th instructor over the years and Alvaro's crew was a cut above the rest. They can get you up on the board if you are total rookie or teach you how to swim past the breakers with the bigger waves! You absolutely cant go wrong with Alvaro and his crew!!

Amazing! - I took my first surf lesson ever here during spring break with 2 friends - we had the best time ever! Our instructor Alvaro was so friendly, good at explaining, and so encouraging during the lesson. He was also super flexible with times! I went back a second time a few days later because I loved it so much, highly recommend.

Great surf instructors - Alvaro and his team of surf instructors were excellent! Knowledgable and friendly instructors who gave great tips and helped me get up and ride some waves! Definitely recommend!
