My Husband and I took a private surf lesson with Mariano and the whole experience was amazing! We were both beginners at surfing, but by the end of the lesson we were catching every wave and having a blast! I would definitely suggest a private lesson with Mariano, he teaches on land, and then teaches the technique in the water between surf. If you want to learn faster and catch more waves, do a private session with him. What a great experience, thank you, Mariano!!!

Mariano is an outstanding surf instructor! He is incredibly patient, professional, and motivating, which makes learning to surf both fun and effective. He explains everything clearly, pays close attention to safety, and always adapts the lessons to your skill level. Thanks to Mariano, I made huge progress in a short time and felt confident in the water from the very beginning. His positive energy and passion for surfing are contagious, and he genuinely cares about his students’ improvement. I can highly recommend Mariano to anyone—from complete beginners to more advanced surfers. One of the best surf instructors I’ve ever had!

Had a great lesson with Mariano in Tamarindo. Even after one lesson, I have a good solid understanding of what I need to continue to do to improve at this sport. Mariano is super knowledgeable, patient, and keeps the learning process simple and fun! I'd highly recommend getting a lesson in with him.

A professional. It pushes you over the edge and over it as long as you really learn. I have been hand in hand with him for a whole month and I have improved a lot!
