Testimonials -

The following are a few of the testimonials from some of our guests. Please Enjoy!

Gerald M., Ontario Canada
"You have a fantastic location - it has been a long time since I could stand in the sun, on a beautiful sand beach, look for a mile in each direction, and see no one else. You provided a supportive environment for an aging kook like me. Excellent instruction, always felt safe! I would recommend Sinaloa for any age. In particular, if you are over 60, and have always wanted to try surfing, this is a great place to be."

Ommed S. - Alberta, Canada
"I can't think of any better circumstances under which to learn how to surf. The laid-back atmosphere, the vacant beaches, the food and the friendly staff makes it an amazing experience. No amount of muscle pain, sunburn or inhaled salt water can make me forget about the feeling of my first wave. Take it from someone who never touched a surfboard prior to this camp - this is the spot."

Gwen M. - New Jersey
"Sinaloa Surf School was an amazing experience! Though I had surfed for a couple of years before going to the school, Mark taught me some key things that made a huge difference in my ability! I am surfing now with greater confidence and having a lot more fun! Thanks Mark! See you next year!"

Jen N. - Oregon
"I don't know much about writing testimonials, but of course you know that I loved it so much there that not only did I not want to leave, I tried to come back a few weeks later. Let's see....what else...the food (mmmm, fresh guac I still dream about) was incredible, patient, focused, and totally enthusiastic teaching.... we watched a breathtaking sunset complete with dolphins and were lucky enough to see the green flash. Definitely a once in a lifetime experience. I came home and recommended it to both my family and my friends."

Melanie A. - New Jersey
"We had the absolute best time: everyone made us feel so at home. The waves were perfect and I learned so much in our daily instruction sessions. Can't even begin to express how phenomenal Marco's cooking is! Seriously: it's the perfect place for the perfect surf camp...if only you could bottle it! We will definitely be back. I'm sure if Mr. Johnny Cash were alive, he would write a lovely tune about it."

Bill M. - Colorado
"If you are a beginner or intermediate, Mark's instruction can get you to the next level. His knowledge, patience and great selection of waves will not leave you disappointed. If you can already surf, it is worth the trip not to battle the masses for waves."

Trent E. - Alberta, Canada
"Most surfers learn to ride in crowded waters, catching the wave not snagged by locals. Not at the new Sinaloa Surf School. Afternoon siestas and a smile at the people you see are the only rules here. Life is slow, and stresses are pretty much nonexistent. Each student raves about their time at the school and plans to return." Taken from the Calgary Herald Dec 17, 2005 travel section. Article titled - SURF SCHOOL"

Helen B.- United Kingdom
"Although I did not try surfing while at the camp (prefer a good book and a relax at the beach!) I was thrilled by the experience at Sinaloa Surf School. The fishing village of Los Barras reminds one of simpler lifestyles without the noise, traffic congestion and inflated costs associated with typical resort towns. One of my fondest memories is the day that Mark took us to the colonial town of San Ignacio. Our week at Sinaloa Surf School was one of the best holidays that our family has ever had together. Cheers!"

Rob A., Minnesota
"We had an absolute great time and would rank it a 12 on a scale of 10. I set really high expectations and they were all met. The owner/instructor Mark Becker, is in my opinion, one of the finest teachers I have ever come across. Plus, he is an outstanding host. This was the best birthday I ever had".
