Would you like to surf many waves and have fun?! Well, there's waves for all levels, so it doesn't matter if you've never done it before, it's all about fun and trying something new with a local surfer to the local surf spots!
These beautiful wide range of beaches are located on the north shore of the bay. Waves are long and smooth on the surf spots we regularly go, great to catch plenty of waves even if you have never done it before.
My name is Joaquin, local surfer from Puerto Vallarta and surroundings. Im 31 and I've been surfing since I was a kid, I love it! I also love where Im from, it has many different waves and options for all of us surfers.
I've been lucky to surf in the most incredible places like Indo, Europe, Costa Rica, Peru, Maui, Australia, Morocco and more!
l been teaching for more than 15 years and I love to share my experience, passion and knowledge with people, and to meet new people everytime!

Great team, we loved the experience! Much less paddling and more of the wave catching, which is quite different to our attempts to go on our own. Appreciated that someone always stayed with my 10yo. They also get you some nice pictures

Great, 10/10 The team was patient, very knowledgeable and cool. Ive surfed a few times before so it was more a coaching than a lesson, so that was very cool to have the right guidance to catch many waves and to do certain adjustments to improve my skills Thanks guys

Great stuff! Emi and his crew were professional, friendly, and serious about catching waves. We could not have a had a better beginner surfing experience. Will do again.

Both my husband and our 12-year-old son took a surfing lesson with Joaquin, and it was an unforgettable experience. Joaquin is incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and skilled at tailoring the lesson to different ages and ability levels. He made them feel confident and safe while still keeping it fun and exciting. They both had an amazing time—highly recommended!

Joaquin is a great instructor, I had a great time with him improving my surfing skills, I consider my self an intermediate surfer, I don’t practice that much at all but I really enjoy those days surfing with his coaching.

Surfing in Puerto Vallarta was amazing! The trainers Emilian, Joaquin, and Daniel made the learning process fun and accessible. Special thanks to Joaquin for helping us when we decided to try surfing on our own — he was always there and supported us. It's challenging, but so much fun! We’ll definitely be back and highly recommend it to everyone!
