Patient and very pleasant instructor, very complete beginner lesson!

5.00The instructor was very easy to work with and very patient. The system for learning in an hour was really well structured and made it so we had enough to go off and practice independently. When we come back we'd definitely consider booking again because the guy was so good!

5.00This experience was amazing! The instructor was knowledgeable and so kind. The location was gorgeous. Pluma, thank you so much for your help and for shaping our confidence to surf. But more than surfing, we learned much about life. Surfing was a blast, it was a life long bucket list item for me.
The best spot in the entire Tulum hotel zone

5.00The perfect vibe to learn kitesurfing and surfing with real professionals who adapt to all levels. Go with your eyes closed and make sure to contact Mau if you’re planning to visit Tulum. 100% recommended!

5.00It was a really cool and fun experience! Mauricio was very professional and taught us a lot about surfing and made sure we were safe and comfortable as well to try new tricks. It's very physically demanding, and it took me a while to learn how to balance myself on the board while my fiance looked like a dolphin on it. Very worth the price and would do it again!

5.00Mauricio and his team (Mathis!) are simply wonderful, very professional and fun! My wife took kite lessons and progressed a lot! I also kited in front of their kite school (Ahau Tulum), and we both had a great time! We also travelled one day with Mauricio's group to Isla Blanca for a perfect kiting day. Cheers to Mauricio and his team!
