I’ve had a great time with Rui, he’s a very passionate surfer but also a very good coach and a kind person. I have always felt safe and he matched his instructions to my level. Since I‘m a beginner with zero knowledge that was necessary, but Rui managed to find the right mix between being patient with me and pushing me and my limits. Chatting with Magda while taking a break was nice too, she was taking care of us too. I would definetly recommend booking a lesson with Rui, actually maybe I‘m coming back for a whole week. Thank you so much!
