A surf trip by boat to Punta Mita is only 20 minute ride and you will have a choice of many spots depending on tide, wind, and swell. Chrystal clear waters and mostly uncrowned it is worth the experience. Our surf instructors will accompany you on the surf journey on a private beach. Surf trips can be made also to nearby beaches (upon request). Trips include surfboards, a rash guard to protect your skin (also used for SPF) drinks, and snacks, and most importantly great energy and instructors.
