Summary:
Peste taught us the basics of surfing in a very short time. A very great experience that we recommend to anyone who wants to stand on the surfboard!

Summary:
Me and my friends had the opportunity to have a class with Pedro and Manuel and it was amazing! In addition to learning a lot from the class (the next day I and my friends already managed to catch the waves alone), Pedro and Manuel are very good waves (pun intended) that made the experience super fun and pleasant. I recommend to anyone the 2H class and if they have the opportunity, the 3H class. A big hug for Manuel and Pedro!
