La Fortuna Surf Shop and Surfing Lessons

Surfing at La Fortuna beach, just 30 minutes from Cabo, is an unforgettable experience. The surf here is some of the best on the Baja peninsula, and there are a ton of different breaks in the area to check out. It's an excellent place for beginners to learn, with perfect swells and far fewer people than other surfing beaches in Cabo. Many times you will have the beach to yourself!

Taking a surfing lesson will ensure you experience the best breaks in the area, plus you can brush up on your skills or learn to surf for the first time. Surfing can be a challenging sport to try to learn on your own and there are a lot of safety factors involved. We have partnered with Bernardo at La Fortuna to bring you the best-in-class surfing experience near Cabo at La Fortuna Beach.

Surfing with Bernardo in Baja isn't just a lesson, it's as if you are learning surfing from your friend.
