He has extensive experience in teaching surfing, is very patient, and will make sure you are the one catching a lot of waves.
A typical day
The surf retreat has something to offer for every level, from beginner to advanced. When not catching waves, you will have the chance to go on a trail adventure, Surfskate classes, or just have a tranquil day at the beach.
High-speed Wi-Fi is available for working remotely. Upon your arrival, you will be greeted and oriented to the space and property.
A typical day will look like waking up in front of the ocean, having an amazing breakfast while observing the conditions and surfers, getting your mind already in the right place for your morning surfing, surf class, having lunch in one of the kiosks at the ocean or the local self-service restaurant to explore typical Brazilian dishes or simply your self-prepared meal. Your well-deserved and needed relaxation time can be spent laying in the hammock or crossing the street to relax at the beach, go for a beautiful hike trail, or watch the beautiful sunset.
Mostly, your surf class will be between 8 am and 12 pm but it will depend on the conditions on that day; we want to make sure you catch waves as much as possible! The day trip to Christ the Redeemer will depend on the weather.
