Salt spray cuts the morning garúa as you step from the van onto the sloping concrete ramps of Lima’s Costa Verde. The Pacific here is deliberate: long, rolling lines that reward timing as much as strength. In four guided sessions you move from paddling basics to timed pop-ups and reading sets, each class tailored to the swell, wind and your progress.

Salt spray cuts the morning garúa as you step from the van onto the sloping concrete ramps of Lima’s Costa Verde. The Pacific here is deliberate: long, rolling lines that reward timing as much as strength. In four guided sessions you move from paddling basics to timed pop-ups and reading sets, each class tailored to the swell, wind and your progress.
Lima’s coastline sits on an uplifted shelf of coastal terraces carved by tectonics and wave action; surfers have used these breaks since the mid-20th century when local clubs began shaping the city’s beach culture. The instructors blend contemporary technique with coastal knowledge—where rip currents channel between reefs and where a morning north swell can turn forgiving peaks into punchier waves.
Expect a practical mix of dry-land warmups, 15 minutes of targeted technique, and 45–60 minutes in the water using softboards, funboards or shortboards matched to your skill. Sessions include basic safety briefings, surf-skate demonstrations and optional video analysis for constructive feedback. Coaches carry accident insurance and adapt beach choice to sea conditions—so your lesson might be at Miraflores, La Pampilla or Punta Hermosa depending on swell and wind.
Plan for compact classroom-style coaching and lots of in-water repetition. Bring a snug rash guard or wetsuit for the cool months, a water bottle, and a tolerance for early starts when the winds are light. These four sessions are built to accelerate learning while keeping safety and local conditions front and center.
