Max was my instructor and very good!!! and patient. I was fortunate there was only 2 of us. Max did a great job setting us up for success before we entered the water. Easy to locate the van. Provided reef shoes. Very helpful. Had a full 90 min session out in the water. I had a great time.

This is just the best! Do it!
We loved this! We went with another couple. Two of us had never snorkeled and the other couple had tried without much success once many years ago. I am not a strong swimmer at all and was VERY nervous getting in the deep ocean water. James was terrific. He was just so nice. He got us all geared up, made sure fins, masks, life jackets all fit, and once in the water he showed us what we need to know. It was just wonderful. We saw at least 6+ huge sea turtles (some may have been the same one passing by more than once, but we didn’t know the difference LOL). We saw many sea creatures, beautiful fish, James brought some creatures up for us to hold, and even pointed out an eel. He took wonderful photos of us from under water and we got them from him from air drop immediately after the tour. I cannot say enough good things about this. I was so nervous, but it ranks up there as one of my very favorite things I have ever done! You do not need to know how to swim, as the life vest keeps you floating, but you need to be comfortable and relaxed in the water. The more relaxed I got, the easier it was. I was tired afterwards, though not really sure why as I didn’t feel like I was working hard. 10/10 recommend this experience and James as your guide. Loved it so much - all four of us did!!

Happy I took the lessons
Great time. I got up successfully after a few tries, and got up almost every time after that. I had time for a little more than 20 attempts. They gave us 12 foot longboards to use. They also provided a rash guard shirt and shoes, so you don’t need to bring those. There is a grassy area where family members who are not surfing can watch.

Great Experience
We've been to Hans Hedemann Surf School twice - once recently and once 2 years ago. That says a lot right there. We had such a good experience the first time that we were willing to pay for it a second time. The safety prep is done well and the instructors really stick with you out in the water. It's been a great experience overall.

First Wave. Biggest Smile. Core Memory.
Max was the epitome of “surf is life.” From start to finish, he was professional, patient, passionate, and genuinely invested in making the experience special. Most importantly, he was amazing with my 6-year-old daughter, Paisley. He knew exactly how to make her feel comfortable, encouraged her every step of the way, and turned her first surfing experience into something she’ll never forget. This ended up being one of the best memories of our daddy-daughter trip, and Max deserves a huge amount of credit for that. We came for a surf lesson and left with an experience we’ll talk about for years. P.S. — Do yourself a favor and add the drone video with his partner OG. The footage is absolutely incredible and captured moments we otherwise never would have had. Totally worth it! Thank you, Max and OG, for an unforgettable experience!

A wonderful experience start to finish!
This is perfect for beginners in snorkeling, especially those who are not strong swimmers or a little nervous in the ocean. Our instructor was James and he was so great from start to finish. He taught us all the basics of snorkeling and took us on his paddle board, where we saw so many different types of fish, coral reefs, and even two sea turtles. It was truly a wonderful and magical experience and I’m so glad we did it. It was one of the highlights of our trip. Would highly recommend to anyone, especially if you are new to snorkeling! You will not regret doing this.
