We all had such a great time! We booked a private lesson for our family: mom,dad, 10yo and two 7yos. Our instructor was fantastic! He spent ample time on the beach talking us through the lesson, but recognized the kids weren't going to sit still for long. He was great in the water with everyone, kids and adults alike. Best of all, everyone caught some waves! I'd highly recommend this activity!

Marcello is amazing. Me, my wife and four others decided to take a surf lesson for the first time while vacationing in Hollywood, FL. All of us were quite apprehensive about what we could achieve in one lesson and whether we would even be able to get on the surf board. However, not only did we manage to get on but we also rode a few waves all the way through. Marcello is extremely patient and explained to each person clearly what they needed to correct. He explained the importance of being one with the ocean and respecting it. He was extremely cheerful, professional and had all the equipment ready for us when we met him. Definitely recommend taking a lesson with Marcello.

A fun experience plus amazing memories for the whole family! Thank you for taking the time to recommend EZride Surf School to other families vacationing in Hollywood, Florida.

Marcello is great. I took one lesson with a different surf coach in Fort Lauderdale before finding Marcello...I'm glad I found Marcello. With his help, I went from a total beginner to beginner-intermediate very quickly. And most importantly, he helped improve my confidence, something that I think can make or break someone's ability and willingness to continue to surf. Marcello is punctual, professional, he takes a credit card if need-be (but I prefer to pay him cash), he picks the right surf breaks depending on your skill level, and he's just a nice guy. Sometimes I text Marcello for a local surf report. Other times, even when I'm not taking a lesson, if he sees me at a local surf break, he affirms the things I'm doing correctly, while pointing out things I could improve on with valuable advice. Surfing is about much more than catching a wave: it's about choosing the right board to ride for your skill level and type of wave you're surfing; navigating yourself on a board in the water (even when paddling out); establishing your position in the lineup; knowing how tides affect the surf breaks; taking care of your surfboard; and ways to improve your surfing when you are not in the water (exercises etc.). Marcello will guide you through all of this. As someone who has lived at, and surfed, the most famous surf breaks in the world in Hawaii, Marcello is a skilled and experienced instructor.

Thank you for taking the time to write such an excellent review for our surf coach Marcello! I can affirm that he is as skilled as you claim and goes above and beyond for everyone. Surfing is his passion and he enjoys helping the beginner to advanced surfer improve and enjoy their surfing even more. As you write, surfing has many details to navigate and Marcello helps that process go EZ and smooth. He is always approachable, and that can be hard to find in the line-up. Please continue to keep us updated on your progress and share your experiences. Learning to surf is life changing and a lifestyle to be enjoyed! Thank you again for recommending EZride Surf School's Head Surf Coach and Trainer!
