Stoked to Catch Our First Waves! 🌊 - Surfing with Reuben at Vallarta Surf Co. was amazing! He explained everything clearly and gave us just the right tips so we were actually catching waves right from the beginning. His mix of patience, encouragement, and fun energy made the lesson unforgettable. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience!

Great experience and will do it again! - We went out for 3 hours with Leo and it was so much fun! Started with being picked up at our hotel which was super convenient. Then we got to enjoy a nice little walk through the woods which felt like an adventure and then it opened up to the beautiful beach. Leo was a great teacher and had two 40 year olds surfing in no time. Highly recommend and am looking forward to coming back.

Great Surf Experience with VSCO in Puerto Vallarta! - We had a fantastic time learning to surf with Premier Surf Lessons VSCO! The instructors — Eduardo, Leo, Samuel, and Ruben — were all knowledgeable, friendly, and made the experience both fun and approachable. They have decades of experience surfing in the area, which gives them expert insight into the local breaks. They knew exactly where to go based on the conditions and our experience level, which made us feel confident and safe throughout the lesson. As beginners, we really appreciated their patience, encouragement, and positive energy. They took the time to explain things clearly, gave helpful one-on-one feedback, and made the whole session enjoyable and low-pressure. Fairly quickly we were catching waves regularly and having so much fun! Whether you’re new to surfing or just looking to improve your skills, this team is a great choice! Highly recommend if you’re in Puerto Vallarta and want a memorable surf experience!

Best Surf in PV - Best surf teacher in PV by far. Professional yet patient, the teacher is a true PV local, and knows so much about the local beaches and culture. He managed to get me to stand up on the board more often than i ever had before! Day went by without a hitch, 10/10 would recommend!!

Great team , great experience - Leo and the team were excellent. Picked us up from the hotel and drove us to the beach. They provided a team of surfers to both teach us in the beach and in the water. Very chill group , who seem to take this as a way to help others enjoy their passion for surfing than a job. Would recommend for families for sure

Fantastic surf experience - Surf lessons were amazing - the instructors tailored the lessons to what each family member needed. They kept my 7 and 9 year old safe and pushed my older kids to improve.

Best experience in PV! - The best experience we had in PV! The surfing instruction was easy to understand and Leo and his team were so patient and helpful out on the water. We had lessons as well as the kids, and we all were able to do a full ride all the way in at least once. My youngest son did it most of the day. I can’t say enough about the time we had. They picked us up and dropped us off at our VRBO condo. Great time, Great people, we’ll have him give us another lesson next time we are in PV for sure. Would recommend to anyone interested in surfing at all.

It’s the best experience you’ll ever have 🐚🌺 - It was such a wonderful tour 😆 We were all well informed beforehand about our concerns and questions 👍 we were told on the day, Dr. Reuben was very enthusiastic and an instructor who was patient and kind enough to teach our foreign selves ✨ I’ve been able to enjoy surfing, the sea, thanks to him 🏄‍♀️💕 I definitely want to go again ‼️

Disappointed - We showed up to the designated meeting area and the provider never showed. We waited for thirty minutes. No phone call, no email, I even tried calling the store and it went to voicemail right away.
