What our students have to say

I took surf lessons with Lenin, and he’s an amazing teacher: patient, passionate, and very clear. I really improved with him. Unlike many other instructors, he takes the time to share his love for surfing instead of just trying to make money. Highly recommend!

We were looking for surf lessons and with Lenin we found the best instructor you can think of. When we got back from the beach, we even got fresh coconuts to drink from. Chelsea and Lenin are the kindest people and in their guesthouse they created this family atmosphere which we really enjoyed. 100% would recommend!

I highly recommend taking surf lessons with Cafecito Surf. The coaches are patient and teach you all the essentials you need to get up and start catching waves. I have nothing but great things to say about Cafecito Surf School.

Beginner

For surfers who are just getting started, have tried a few lessons before, or want to refresh the fundamentals and get warmed up.

You’ll stay in the whitewater to focus on:

 

  • Pop-up technique
  • Stance & balance
  • Board control & safety

Intermediate

For surfers who can safely paddle out, catch waves with assistance, and are ready to surf the open face (not just whitewater).

 

You’ll work on:

 

  • Positioning in the lineup

  • Timing your paddle & take-off

  • Riding the face & starting basic turns

A Cafecito Coach must approve you for intermediate classes before signing up. 

Int to Advanced

Already catching your own waves and looking to fine-tune? This class is for seasoned surfers who want to:
 
  • Improve turns, cutbacks & maneuvers
  • Refine style and body positioning
  • Make better decisions on wave choice & lines
