I spent 3 weeks in Playa Gigante and absolutely loved it! All the teachers there are extremely professional, catering to whatever level you are at, and have a great mix of group activities to get you meeting everyone else in the school. The owner Juan is an absolute legend and so helpful. He would organise anything you need and even for my partner's birthday made the class to be a cooking class instead where we prepared local food. The homestay with Marie Helena was also a stand out, she would love a chat at all meal times and would always make delicious food. Finally, this stretch of Nicaraguan of Pacific coast is stunning. Couldn't imagine a better location where your class overlooks the waves, and not to mention that you can easily surf twice a day and often not even have to share the waves! Easily a 5/5!

Surf Popoyo Lessons​

Hi, my name is Morrie. I'm a kiwi now living the dream in Nicaragua. I own and operate Surf Popoyo Lessons. I would love to teach you how to surf. I offer 3 hour lessons to beginner and beginner/intermediate surfers. My lessons tend to have around an hour of class time where we learn about rips, waves and ocean safety. We then create some muscle memory, practicing standing up. After that, it's off to the water to put it all into practice and stand up on some waves. I provide a lot of information about the steps to take following the lesson to turn yourself into a competent surfer. I only charge you USD$40, for a group class. Private classes are $70. So, what do you have to loose...? Come Down to Casa Rosada and say hi. Don't just go surfing, become a surfer. It will change your life!

Love this beach. The pelicans and hermit crabs were fun to watch. Be sure to use the hammocks in the shade, they make a great afternoon reading or napping spot.
