We caught waves! Highly recommend - Huge appreciation to Bobo and the instructors for a watershed day learning to surf! They were able to teach us beginners; to our wonderful surprise, my husband and I were catching waves within an hour of practice- it was so fun that we came back again to get even better

Best place to surf - It was a really nice surf experience! The teachers are very good and take time to explain the technics on land before going in the water. They accommodated me very well when I had to push back the lesson because I was late because of traffic. You learn in a really nice environment!

Thank you Bobo! - We had an amazing time! Bobo really took his time to explain everything to us and let us practice on land until we were comfortable and he felt we were ready for the water. You can tell how passionate he is about surfing and how much he loves teaching others about his sport. He helped the four of us, along with another instructor, the whole time we were in the water which really helped us have a great experience. So much fun! Make sure to grab some refreshing juice after from the nice man who drives along the road near the beach.

The real deal if it comes to surfing - I had 4 private lessons with Bobo and it turned out to be the best surfing class I could have imagined. I had some basic surf skills and Bobo helped me to work on improving the basics and brought me to the next level. He explained so many details and very thorough analysis about my practice which helped me a lot to improve day by bay. Compared to other schools he is really able to make you ready for the real deal !!!! I can only recommend to reach out to him (via Whatsapp!)

Great surfing with Bobo - Bobo’s surf instruction is top notch. He focuses on technique and fundamentals of surfing to enhance progression. He helped me with paddling, footwork, turning and arm placement.

Amazing experience!! - Our two teenage daughters absolutely loved Bobo Surfing!! The guys who gave them lessons were very friendly, knowledgeable and patient. Our girls had zero surfing experience, but Bobo Surfing had them up and catching waves in no time. They were very good about keeping them safe and helping them learn good surfing skills. Our girls had the time of their lives and can't wait to get back out on the waves. Thanks, Bobo!!!!

An incedible experience! - What an incredible experience!!! My 17 y/o daughter and I could not have had a better teacher! Bobo was patient and his teaching technique comprehensible and logical. Basically Bobo made learning to surf fun, with a strong emphasis on safety. Certainly I highly recommend Bobo and his team.

The BEST surfing classes I’ve ever had - I usually don’t write reviews. However, I feel like I have to share my experience. Bobo is the real deal. He is a local surfer that has been around forever, knows everyone and is down to earth. He has real world experience from all his travels. He knows the spots better than anyone. It’s also pretty cool that the surf spot is actually named after him. I chose the private classes because my time was limited and I wanted to squeeze as much quality surf time as I could. I appreciated the class not starting very very early. After all, I was on vacation with my non surfing wife. We started on time, warmed up on the beach, went through the basics, studied the waves and talked about the days goals. He supplied the right board for my level and as I progressed through the week, the surfboards I was riding we’re getting smaller. Whenever I felt nervous, anxious or had any doubts, Bobo answered my questions and slowly pushed me passed my comfort zone. I came back from the trip a much better surfer. I have a new perspective on reading the waves and being at the right spot. I can surf bigger better waves and I feel I’m a much safer and confident surfer because of the time I invested with Bobo. My trip was in Sept 2020 and I’m already booked to return Nov 2020. I have no regrets and look forward to working with Bobo to take my surfing to the next level. I recommend him 100%.

surfing with BOBO - BOBO and team are amazing! I am a beginner from Canada hence I always want to practice and get better and the waves and beach of Cabarete are great and clean and I felt very safe. Bobo teaches proper technique and focuses on proper form so that you can get on the board and ride the waves within a 2 hour lesson! He is highly skilled, organized, speaks fluent English and prompt with all email / inquiries. I recommend this surf school when in Cabarete.

Amazing Family Experience - My family and I just spend two morning with bob and his team leading to surf in Cabarete. What an amazing experience - bobo’s teaching and method put us all at ease - ages 8 - 46 all had fun and actually surfed. Yoga in motion and the help of Freddy and Tito had us all riding waves shorty after getting in the weather. My girls would like to especially thank Freddy and my son the same for Tito @ they were great in the water and on our second day even some of us(mostly the kids) caught waves on their own. Would highly recommend bobo to learn to surf in Cabarete
