      Do it. This was the tail end of our cruise. It was the highlight after 2 days in Cabo. The surf instructors went hard the whole time to get us all up on surfboards. The beach is great, the waves are great.

      Response from Host, Sep 2026

      Thank you so much for the 10/10 review and for catching some waves with us! Catching your first wave is an unforgettable feeling, and we are so stoked to hear that our surf instructor made you feel confident, comfortable, and well taken care of in the water. Taking surf lessons is definitely one of the top things to do in Ensenada, and our goal is always to deliver a fun, supportive experience whether you're a total beginner or just dusting off your skills. Next time you’re heading down to Baja—whether for a weekend getaway or another worry-free cruise excursion—we’d love to take you out for more adventure, like exploring the coast on an ATV tour or unwinding on a Valle de Guadalupe wine tour. P.S. Follow our adventures on TikTok! You can find us @JesseInEnsenada — Jesse in Ensenada

      Carlos is the best instructor!

      Carlos is the best surfing instructor! We had a great experience for this surfing lesson being our first time surfing. We will definitely book again for our next trip to Ensenada.

      Awesome experience

      We had an awesome experience. They were able to pick us up from the cruise port terminal. We had never surfed before so they took their time instructing us. We had a great time.

      Ronnie rocks!

      Cynthia_W, Mar 2026
      Ronnie was a great instructor. He stayed with the boys, 14 and 17, the whole time. You will be in the water most of the time. The wetsuit helps you stay comfortable.

      Amazing customer service & lessons
