PRICE: $70
per person
Begin your experience on land with guided instruction focused on understanding the ocean. Learn how Caribbean conditions differ from other coastlines, how reef breaks work, how to read waves and currents, and how to safely enter and exit the water.
Listen as your coach explains local tides, wind, and wave behavior in a clear, practical way so you feel informed before getting wet. Depending on conditions and your comfort level, participate in guided surfing, paddle boarding, or a combination of both.
Use paddle boarding as a tool for balance, ocean awareness, and calm water confidence, while surfing introduces wave timing, positioning, and board control. Locations such as Playa Grande or nearby beaches are selected daily to match skill level and ocean conditions.
In the water, receive hands-on guidance, wave or route selection, and real-time feedback. Small group sizes allow for individual attention and a relaxed pace. This experience is not performance-driven. The focus is on understanding the water, building confidence, and enjoying the Caribbean Sea in a supportive environment.
