2 Hour Private Surfing Experience in Puerto Vallarta

This private surf session in Puerto Vallarta is designed for anyone who wants to catch plenty of waves and have fun, whether or not they have ever surfed. The operator explains that there are waves for every level, and the idea is to try something new with a local surfer at local surf spots.

The spots are a wide range of beaches on the north shore of the bay. According to the listing, the waves at the places they usually go are long and smooth, which makes it easy to catch many of them even as a beginner. The instructor picks you up in the Puerto Vallarta or Bahía de Banderas area and drives to Punta Mita or Nuevo Nayarit, about a 40-minute drive from Puerto Vallarta.

Your guide is Joaquin, a local surfer from Puerto Vallarta and its surroundings who has surfed since childhood and says he has been teaching for more than 15 years. He mentions having surfed in places such as Indonesia, Europe, Costa Rica, Peru, Maui, Australia and Morocco, and says he enjoys sharing his experience and meeting new people every time.

Included are the local surf instructor, bottled water, surfboards and surf equipment, snacks and a GoPro camera. Alcoholic beverages and gratuities are not included. The operator also invites you to look them up on Instagram as wave__surfing.
