Good to know

What time should I arrive?
Arrive about 15 minutes early. Getting there ahead of time lets you watch the waves and the other surfers, and start getting comfortable with the ocean before we begin.
What should I bring?
Water, sunscreen, and a swimsuit. Bring a wetsuit or rashguard if you have one, and a positive attitude. That’s all you need. I’ll bring the board.
How can I prepare?
Watching a few short videos beforehand really helps:Beginners: Watch Intermediate: Watch Surf etiquette (please watch this one): Watch

In their own words.

Guests on what surfing with Mauro was actually like.

Booked a lesson with Luciano at Costa Azul expecting the usual beginner routine — got way more than that.

He reads that break better than anyone, adjusts the lesson to how you're actually doing (not a script), and somehow makes catching your first wave feel inevitable instead of terrifying. Patient, genuinely fun to be around, and clearly knows every corner of Costa Azul and the surrounding San José del Cabo breaks. Already planning to book again.
