This was so much fun! He... - This was so much fun! He was so great at explaining how to get up and me and my boyfriend both got up every time and had the best time! Would be great for families and kids!!

Book this lesson! - Absolutely amazing experience. He was so informative, helpful and resourceful. This is way better than doing a big group lesson. More one on one time and more time in the water. He makes you feel very welcoming, you feel like a real local at home.

Definitely book this private lesson-worth every dollar - An absolutely amazing experience! Very encouraging and kind instructor. Our daughter learned a lot and had a wonderful time learning to surf.

Surfing Experience of a lifetime! - ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ Jason is an outstanding teacher and human being. He has a passion and energy for surfing that is unrivaled. Not only did he teach my 12 year old daughter to surf, but he also taught her to read the waves - one of the most challenging parts of surfing. He was safety conscious and fun all at the same time. You could not find a better person than Jason to teach you to surf. She had the experience of a lifetime.

Book your surf lesson with Jason!! - I was only in Tamarindo for a few days, but my goal for the trip was to learn how to surf. I tried a few different coaches, either because I felt they didn’t really know how to teach, or because I didn’t feel entirely safe as a solo female traveler. As a solo female traveler, feeling safe and comfortable in the water is very important to me. I found Jason while randomly scrolling (and I also liked the idea of supporting local Ticos), and I’m so glad I did! Jason doesn’t just know how to surf. He really knows how to teach. More importantly, you can tell he genuinely loves what he does, and that passion is contagious. After his lesson, I felt much more connected to the board and to the waves. Surfing is so much more than just having someone push you into waves and tell you when to stand up. Jason actually teaches you what you need to understand, whether you're a beginner or more advanced. As someone who enjoys the “theory” behind things, I especially appreciated his clear and structured explanations. We started with some theory on the beach before going into the water. The conditions weren’t ideal that day, but Jason is excellent at reading waves, and I was still able to catch several. It was a great conclusion to my trip. I only had time for one lesson before leaving, but I will definitely book more with him next time I’m back in Tamarindo, and I’ll absolutely be recommending him to my friends. If you're looking to surf in Tamarindo, I highly recommend booking a lesson with Jason. Whether you're serious about improving or just want to try surfing for fun, you'll have a great experience, and it will help you have a better understanding of surfing as a sport.

His Love, Energy and Passion for surfing is motivating and infectious. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to learn to surf in an authentic surfing experience. Pura Vida. 🏄‍♂️

Authentic tico surfing lesson! - Jason is a fantastic teacher and his passion for the sea and surfing is contagious! He is an expert in reading and riding the sea. We felt so blessed to learn from him and learn how to embrace, not resist the ocean. Under his guidance, my 78 year-old father was able to ride the waves four times all the way to the beach, on his very first surfing class! I highly recommend Jason to anyone who wishes to learn surfing the real tico way :)

True pura vida experience! - Exceeded expectations, the BEST place to book your surfing lessons! David was a pro at teaching our group of 10-21 yr olds and gave us a wonderful personalized experience. He determined the time and place based on weather conditions and very generously spent a lot of extra time with us getting to a beautiful less crowded beach, giving us a relaxed experience. Everything was included: surf boards, wet suits, etc. and all 4 participating caught many waves! We felt like we were with a knowledgeable surfer friend vs a corporation churning groups. We also enjoyed the most delicious pineapple we’ve ever had! Muchas gracias, David. Book with him, you won’t regret it!

An unforgettable surfing experience - Here’s a polished and enticing review suggestion you could use or adapt: Jason didn’t just teach us how to surf — they made us fall in love with the ocean. Patient, encouraging, and full of energy, Jason went above and beyond to ensure Dan and I felt confident and safe in the water. From breaking down the basics to celebrating every small victory, the lesson was equal parts fun and empowering. If you’re looking for more than just a surf class, but a true adventure with someone who genuinely cares about your progress, this is the place to go. Highly recommend to anyone ready to ride their first wave or sharpen their skills!
