Pepe El Pollo Surf Lessons

Pepe El Pollo Surf Lessons is a surf school on Playa Tamarindo. Every lesson lasts two hours and includes a soft-top surfboard, a rash guard and a bilingual instructor. Private, semi-private and group lessons are offered, as well as 3-, 5- and 7-day surf packages that include a photo package. Surfboard rentals are also available.

The school also books other local tours, such as zip lining, ATV rides, kayaking and boat trips in the estuary, sport fishing, horseback riding and sunset catamaran cruises. It is open every day from 7 am to 6 pm. Contact is by phone, WhatsApp or email.

The school is consistently well reviewed. Students praise the patient, clear teaching, which starts with theory on the sand, and many beginners and children say they stood up on the board in their first lesson. Several reviewers mention good prices.
