"Oh, I miss this place already and fell in love with it! I have been on a few surf trips and this one has stood out by ticking all the boxes.... I found the surf package good value for money, one or two lessons a day, board rental, breakfast, and loads of photos. Highly recommended and I can't wait to return one day!"

- Senka

"I was so nervous traveling alone for the first time, but immediately felt more comfortable once arriving to Beach Break. The staff are super friendly and attentive. My surf instructor got me riding green waves by the end of my week long Surf Camp. And I have the pictures to prove it!"

- Angel

"I can’t speak high enough about John, Carla and the entire Beach Break crew. I’ve been all through central and South America, visiting different surf camps and BJJ camps and never found one that made me feel so at home. Whether it is Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, surfing or just hanging with some incredible people that you are looking for, this is the spot."
