Surf Class: Beginner

From first paddle to first wave we’ve got you.

Never touched a board? No worries. We’ll guide you through every step — from getting comfortable in the ocean, to understanding wave timing, standing up with confidence, and riding your first clean line. Our beginner classes are safe, supportive, and seriously fun — taught in mellow breaks, with close coaching and zero pressure. You’ll leave knowing how to read waves, paddle like a local, and love the process.

Surf Class: Intermediate

Level up your ride and your rhythm

You’ve caught waves, now it’s time to refine your flow. Our intermediate classes are designed to sharpen your technique, from trimming and carving to improving paddle efficiency and positioning. We’ll push your limits while keeping it fun — with coaching that adapts to your style and goals. Get ready to link turns, read the ocean deeper, and ride more confidently in diverse conditions.
Surf Class: Advanced

Push boundaries. Find your next breakthrough.

Already charging? Let’s take it further. Our advanced coaching is made for experienced surfers looking to dial in performance — whether it’s mastering powerful turns, nailing critical takeoffs, or adapting to more technical waves. We’ll focus on wave selection, body mechanics, and fine-tuning your style for powerful, precise surfing. It’s not just about riding — it’s about evolving.

Your Surf Coaches

Passionate locals. Real surfers. Real teachers.

Travis Tunnicliffe
(Aka Tuna)

Born with a board under his arm and salt in his veins, Travis has been riding waves his whole life. Inspired by his father, a true soul surfer, Travis grew up surfing daily — turning passion into purpose. By 22, he was teaching in Maui. By 33, he’d made the ocean his full-time calling, blending surf instruction with ocean photography.

His journey has taken him from the Pacific to Africa, alongside his wife — a Colombian surf photographer — capturing waves and sharing stoke across continents. Today, you’ll find him at Casa del Golfo in El Salvador, where he’s not just teaching — he’s creating powerful connections between people and the sea.

Pete
Stramszky

Pete’s journey with surfing began in 2021 on the rugged coastlines of Portugal, where he lived, coached, and immersed himself in the rhythm of the ocean. What started as a personal pursuit quickly evolved into a full-time passion — leading surf camps, organizing retreats, and capturing surf culture through film.

Originally from Hungary, where he’s ranked 13th nationally, Pete blends global surf knowledge with sharp technical insight. From skate-based training to video analysis and surf theory, his coaching style is thoughtful, professional, and designed to bring out the best in every student. Today, he shares his craft at Casa del Golfo in El Salvador — helping surfers of all levels feel at home in the water and push beyond what they thought possible.
