Experienced, patient, fun instructors. One-on-one private lessons (beginner or intermediate) focusing on safety, proper technique and wave judgment.
Fall Asleep in Our Hammocks
Just admit it - you're going to take a nap in the hammocks by the sea, shaded by almond trees. It's ok. We do, too.
On- and Off-Shore Fishing
We'll stock the gear, the beer, and the boat. Bring the guys and girls fishing. Rossi caught a 52lb Mahi Mahi. Can y'all do better?
Tide Pool to the Stars
Uniquely adaptable animals inhabit the tide pool. "Look [...] to the stars and then back to the tide pool again." - Steinbeck (& Rossi)
Spearfishing
When the weather and tides are right, we go spearfishing for wild, natural beauty - and for dinner. Come along, if you're up for it.
Waterfall Pool
We know of several hikes to waterfalls, slides, and pools. When the water is up, we'll lead you and your group there! (We like going, ourselves.)
Turtles
From July to December, endangered sea turtles return to the beaches of San Miguel to nest. Visit www.pretoma.org or email info@pretoma.org for information about volunteering.
