Posted on ryan fairTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Get Experince !!!Posted on susanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Nacho is an amazing surf instructor! It was my first time ever surfing and he taught me all the theory in a very clear way. I even then managed to stand up a few times with his guidance, which I was not expecting to do at my first lesson. Really wish I had more time in Santa Teresa to take more lessons! Highly recommend.Posted on John HoganTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Nacho is the man!

Súper recomendable 10/10Posted on Andrea FasuloTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Prima di essere un grande istruttore di surf, Nacho è un grande uomo. Capacità comunicative, professionalità e passione, lo rendono l’istruttore di surf più bravo che abbia mai avuto. Surfare con Nacho non è solo imparare a praticare un semplice sport, ma con lui il surf diventa una vera e propria scuola di vita. Provate e mi darete ragione. Grazie di tutto hermano. Ci vediamo presto.Posted on Raw HealthworksTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I felt safe in the water being a beginner. Nacho focuses on technique and it makes you more successful catching waves when you go out. He was very communicative re the booking and I was surprised at how detailed and responsive he was. Very professional and chill at the same time.Posted on Marcelien Bos-de KoningTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great fun sessions with our Fam of 5 with our 7, 10 and 11 year old.
