"JLuis is a fantastic teacher but also a tico with a passion for the ocean. He has a magical intuition, somehow he just knows where the perfect waves are going to be and makes sure you are set up to have an amazing experience every time. Pure magic, I highly recommend them."
"Best Surfing Experience!"
"JLuis has been a true blessing for our family. I have a 10 year old boy who has taken up surfing because of JLuis. [...] He just knows about tides and great waves, and uncrowded spots. I highly recommend him for people wanting to absorb the entire experience of surfing with safety and fun, at the same time."
"Great Week Long Trip!"
"I took my first lesson with Jorge in 2014 and had never been on a surfboard before. Been going down to the Tamarindo area twice a year since and working with Jorge every trip. You would be hard pressed to find a more dedicated and knowledgeable surf instructor. While I cannot surf like Jorge, very few can, I’ve progressed to catching and riding 4-5 foot waves on my own and really enjoy surfing. I could not have progressed nearly as fast without Jorge’s techniques."
"Surf Break Rocks!"
We got to watch our 15 and 12 year old sons progress from surfing in the white wash to paddling out to safely take bigger waves in the span of a couple lessons. They’re still excitedly showing off all the photos & videos we got from Surf Break of their surfing. My husband got to head out with JLuis to check out some off the beaten path surf spots. We also went zip lining and checked out a waterfall & hot springs without having to make any arrangements ourselves."
"Great Lessons for Beginners!"
"JLuis and Kat with Surf Break Costa Rica gave my 10 year old daughter and me a great surf lesson. We have both taken a lesson or two over the past few years and only get to the ocean that often - so we are not seasoned surfers, but not first timers. JLuis helped me change the pop-up technique and for the first time I felt confident I could get on the board in control."
