Consistent Waves: The geographical configuration of Playa Delfines allows for the formation of waves that are ideal for surfing, from beginners to more experienced surfers.
Accessibility: Being a public beach, it offers easy access with free parking, restrooms, and umbrellas, making your surfing experience more comfortable and convenient.
Dolphin Sightings: The name "Delfines" is no coincidence. It is common to spot dolphins playing in the waters at dawn, adding a magical touch to your surf session

Real storiets from students who’ve paddled out, stood up, and fallen in love with the waves.
Not only was I able to store my luggage with them in the meantime but also they took lots of great videos and pictures for me. The communication with Mariana was easy, my surf teacher Jamaica was super experienced and Alex and the rest of the crew helped make me feel super safe the whole time. Honestly, I had the best time and totally fall in love with surfing. Thank you very much everyone!

Location is right by the beach. It’s easy to spot the boards and they have chairs set up. I reached out first on their website and they’re very responsive and speak English. The class is about 90mins and very beginner friendly. Jamaica preps me with techniques and also guide me to feel the ocean. It was a blast to enjoy the free spirit of surfing. Also, they have paddle board class if you’re interested. 🤙🤙🤙

Jamaican who owns/runs the company came over and gave another board for my youngest to use and gave us advice and even spent some time tutoring my children in the challenging conditions 4-5 second intervals. Jamaican was a breath of fresh air from the rest of the company’s/vendors we encountered while in Cancun whose only goal was to extract as much cash out of us as possible.

I will gladly give five stars Mr. Jamaica and Mrs. Mariana. I'm a surfer who hasn't caught the waves in 30 years. I live in Texas. I was visiting for business conference suddenly I wanted to surf once more and try to search for the possibility and I found Jamaica from Google search. When I contacted him, he kindly provided me with details on beach conditions and by answering other questions.

I went with my wife and two teenage boys. It surpassed my expectations. We were just the 4 of us in the lesson and we had an instructor and 2 assistants helping us. We were really well cared for and had constant attention. Sometimes it was hard to get far enough out past the waves to start surfing, but they were always beside us and helped us do it. That way, we were able to conserve our energy a bit for the actual surfing part. All 4 of us got up. We highly recommend.
