My children (boy age 11 and girl age 9) and I surfed with Sunset Surf last week in Dominical and Dominicalito. Dylan and Jossue were very attentive, patient and fun and did a great job teaching us how to surf and how to stay safe in the water. Both of my children said that surfing was the most fun they had in Costa Rica. I would highly recommend Sunset Surf Dominical to anyone.

Our family went on the beginning surf tour. We had a wonderful time. The instructors were very patient with the boys. Jose even got the nervous 10 year old out in the surf and up on the board in no time. We could hear the 6 year laughing on every wave he stood up on. The school provided an instructor for each of our two youngest boys (6 and 8). The six year old cried the next day when he couldn’t hang out with his new friends. They have been practicing so when we go back they can show the instructors how they have improved.

Dylan and all his crew at Sunset Surf were fantastic from patiently helping this old fella rekindle his surfing to helping kids to organizing waterfall trips, horse riding, canyoning, surf kayaking, ocean kayaking, zip lining….

the best, and we will be back!

I was able to spend four days surfing with Dylan and Raymond and I’m hooked for life. These guys are great. They are professional and knowledgeable and still very fun and friendly. They know how to surf, and even more importantly they know how to TEACH surfing. Two days I was with just one or two other new surfers and we got great one on one instruction. On the days when I was with a larger group, Dylan and Raymond still gave us each great individual instruction, watching what each one of us was doing so they could continue to give us personalized instruction. I was very impressed with their ability to assess and instruct each of us, instead of just going through the same standard “surf 101” type class that other places use. On my last day out, the water gods were not cooperating and we found ourselves sitting, waiting for long stretches between sets. While Dylan could easily have sat silently or otherwise filled the time with small talk, instead he took the opportunity to teach us his thought process as an avid surfer. He told us what he’s looking for, what he’s watching, what he’s planning, and what he’s thinking when he’s waiting for waves. I learned just as much that day as I did on the days when we were catching waves nonstop. Dylan and his crew are truly top-notch surf instructors, and I highly recommend Sunset Surf. I will definitely come back to surf with them again.
