Awesome team! Beautiful place! A must do for first timers! - This surfing lesson was the best! I rented a board once about 15 years ago and couldn’t figure out how to catch a wave. The instructors were so helpful and got me up a few times during the first lesson! If you are hesitant at all to give it a go, don’t be. All of the instructors were so friendly and excited to help. Just do it!

Fantastic beginners... - Fantastic beginners lessons for surfing. I didn't think I would be able to ride any waves on my first lesson, but I surprised myself. The waves are very smooth for beginners.

Unforgettable Surfing Experience! - The most fun I’ve ever had!! This was only my second time surfing (my first was in Portugal), and I have to say — this experience was so much better! The instructors were incredibly attentive, making sure we felt confident and ready to succeed. They gave really specific instructions and made sure to choose waves that matched our skill level. On top of that, they were so nice — super friendly and funny. I loved being able to support a local business like this one! They even arranged transportation for us, which was such an unexpected bonus. Seriously, don’t waste your time — just book it. I’m already planning to bring all my friends back with me next time!

Silva Surf School is Top Notch - Silva Surf School was fantastic! We walked from our house to meet them in La Punta but they made a game time decision and drove us across town for better beginner surf conditions. They worked with all skill levels and ages - 8 to 70. If you're looking for a surf lesson in PE I'm sure you cant do better.

Amazing experience! This... - Amazing experience! This was my first time surfing and all the instructors were super helpful, enthusiastic and didna great job of making sure everyone had opportunities to catch some waves! I also wasn't feeling well on the day of my experience and was able to work with them to come the next day. This is a fantastic company led by a group of Zicatela experts! I will definitely take more lessons from them when I come back to Puerto Escondido!
