I booked a private paddleboard lesson yesterday, and I do not regret it. My lesson, by two instructors Sander and Roberto, was involved, professional, thorough and fun. There's a lot to know about paddleboarding, and they patiently went through every detail with me. They were also very encouraging during the experience. Afterwards, I spent the day at the beach club and enjoyed the rest of the day on clean sunbeds facing the beautiful turquoise water and had great food and drinks. I will definitely be going back for more lessons as soon as I return!

We took a private SUP lesson with Sander and loved it! He was thorough, informative and gave us confidence for our first time on a board. We enjoyed our class with him and had a wonderful time. You will not find a better mentor or a more enjoyable person to spend some time with on the water. We were thrilled with the entire experience!

My wife took a private paddleboard class with Sander yesterday. It was a great experience. Sander was very enthusiastic about his job and extremely patient during the lesson. We will go back again for more practice.

We had the best experience with Sander. The land training was great and helped build our confidence for when we entered the water. We all loved every minute, Sander was great at guiding and instructing us in the sea and changed boards for both my son and husband when he felt they would benefit from a different size. It definitely gave us the passion to take paddleboarding up as a hobby and we can’t wait to put all our training into further practice. Thank you again for the best morning!
