What To Expect

We start every lesson with a detailed introduction to water safety and theory. We also practice your pop-up and when you are ready, we enter the water and start the fun part – surfing! We adapt the lesson to your level: if you are a beginner, we push you into the waves, and if you are intermediate we provide you with coaching and help you catch the waves on your own. We also have a surf house called Casa Silva for our surf students, so let us know if you want the full experience with surf and accommodation while staying in Puerto Escondido.

Fantastic beginners lessons for surfing. I didn't think I would be able to ride any waves on my first lesson, but I surprised myself. The waves are very smooth for beginners.

I am a total beginner and managed to catch some waves with the help of great instructors. We were planning to surf on Carizalillo but there were no waves that day, so we drove to la Punta instead. The instructors will make sure you have a great experience!

Silva Surf School was fantastic! We walked from our house to meet them in La Punta but they made a game time decision and drove us across town for better beginner surf conditions. They worked with all skill levels and ages - 8 to 70. If you're looking for a surf lesson in PE I'm sure you cant do better.

Amazing experience! This was my first time surfing and all the instructors were super helpful, enthusiastic and didna great job of making sure everyone had opportunities to catch some waves! I also wasn't feeling well on the day of my experience and was able to work with them to come the next day. This is a fantastic company led by a group of Zicatela experts! I will definitely take more lessons from them when I come back to Puerto Escondido!
