Surfing - Surfing with Constantino was one of the top 3 experiences we had the pleasure to experience in our 2 weeks of holidays in the Azores. The boys spread good humor and motivated us throughout the course. It was really a lot of fun, thank you so much!

Best Surfing Lesson Experience - Our family had a great instructor and the team was great overall. Our grown kids had various surfing skill levels and Constantine was wonderful working with all three of them. Brandon, Emma & Samantha loved every minute of it.

So much fun and pro guides. - We (4 people age 47,42,16,13) had 2 private surf lessons. We feel so lucky and happy, that we used Watergliders. We had Constantine as our guide. Such a pro guide and very nice personality. We had a great time. We will remember this and recommend to everyone. Thanks 🙏 Family from Denmark

Small group, great instructors, awesome location! - So fun! The two instructors put us through a good warm up on the beach before dividing up the group (total group of 7 including my husband and I) and teaching us the positions and strategies on the board on land. Then we got in the water and the instructors helped us catch waves! They were encouraging and cheered us on even when we were terrible ha. Awesome experience for two people who have only surfed one other time!
