I booked this looking to catch a few waves and maybe make a local friend. What I got ~far~ surpassed my expectations. We went to this beautiful spot that’s very easy to learn at and stayed in the water during sunset - unreal. With his friendly feedback and guidance I stood up probably 25 times! He's such a great teacher, he really made it easy. I feel a confidence in surfing now that I had never gotten from other instructors. AND he was incredibly kind, friendly, funny and chill. One of my favorite new friends of my journey so far! Couldn’t recommend more!! 11/10!!!
