5.00I had an amazing experience taking a surf class in Tamarindo with Mauro. He was very professional, patient, and explained everything clearly, which made me feel comfortable and confident from the very beginning, even as a beginner. Thanks to his tips, I was able to stand up on the board in a short time, which felt incredible. I also really appreciated the personalized attention and how supportive he was throughout the lesson. I highly recommend taking a surf class with him to anyone who wants to learn how to surf or improve their skills. I would definitely do it again!

5.00Mao from Mousehead Surf School in Tamarindo is the best. I spent three days with him and he gave very in depth tips taking me from raw beginner with white water to intermediate level riding greens. Learning how to read the waves before they come. He was very hospitable and very patient. Very personable and very detail oriented. He carried to my specific needs and helped me progress!

5.00We had the best time with Mao and Leo this morning! My husband and 18-year-old son and I had a private lesson and it was absolutely fantastic. They were kind, supportive, informative, helpful and we all were able to get up and enjoyed our lesson. Would absolutely go again with Mao. It was nice that it was just us and not a big group of strangers. Lots of hands-on help. Thanks, Mao and Leo! Pura Vida! Mariam, Scott and Quinlan
