A 2-hour Miami Beach group surf lesson with beach training first, then ocean coaching, boards included, and small-group attention.
“We (a dad and 2 middle school boys) really enjoyed the entire experience of learning to surf for the first time. The location was great, easy to park and meet up with the instructor. The communication in advance was clear and easy to follow. The instructor (Stephen) was really great, giving us instruction to not just enjoy our time in the ocean that day, but to have things to build on if we wanted to keep surfing in the future. With his teaching - initially on the boards on the beach - and his help in the water, we were all able to successfully ride some waves, feel that great…”

A 2-hour private Miami Beach surf lesson with a surfboard included, English certified coaching, and personalized feedback for beginners to intermediates.
“Onze gids heeft zich niet voorgesteld. Moest op de parkeerplaats wachten tot overige lesgenoten kwamen, terwijl we een privé les hadden en de uiteindelijk ook niemand meer aansloot. Erg lange ‘warming up’, op en neer rennen met surfboard over strand was achteraf onnodig zwaar, krachten al verspeeld voor we het water ingingen. In totaal 1,5u bezig geweest ipv 2 uur, waarvan de warming up de helft van de tijd was! Na 1.5u moest hij nieuwe klanten gaan ophalen op de parkeerplaats. Het was heel cool en leuk, maar niet de prijs waard voor ‘twee uur privéles surfen’ in mijn ogen! Aan het eind van de les werd er erg op…”
Fly a real plane in Miami with an FAA-qualified instructor, take the controls for basic maneuvers, and enjoy Miami Beach views.
“It was a little mixup with the reservation BUT Sebastian got right on top of things and got everything straighten out. It was a surprise adventure for my boyfriend’s 50th birthday. Flying a plane was on his bucket list. He absolutely loved it. He was like a big kid. I scored major girlfriend points. The staff and pilot at Elevate Aviation Academy was able to accommodate the last minute change. And they did it with a smile. It was an amazing experiencing. I highly recommend it.”

We really enjoyed the class with Ms. Raksha, it was so informative, lively and we really enjoy making our own perfume! We ended up choosing 2 perfume and bought their Miami signature perfumes because they all smell really nice and the packaging is gorgeous!”

A 2-hour private surf lesson in Miami Beach with boards provided, beach coaching first, then 60–80 minutes in the ocean.
“My session was canceled three minutes before it was supposed to start (7:57 AM) because there were no waves—which I completely understand, nature is unpredictable. The issue is that they canceled so late that I had already paid $30 for parking, which was a total waste of money. Their website also states that on no-wave days, you’d still get the land portion of the class and be offered a paddleboard instead of a surfboard. However, they neither had nor offered any paddleboards. I had to remind them about this option, and they told me they couldn’t fulfill it for at least another two or three hours. We had other plans…”
South Beach bachelorette salsa night with VIP skip-the-line entry, salsa and bachata lessons, mojitos, live band, and late DJ dancing.
“This was so excellent. Let's start with the staff, which was excellent starting with the staff at the club entrance, they greeted us immediately and took us to where we were suppose to be. After that the dance teachers, the waiters, bartenders were excellent. We enjoyed the lesson, and the refreshments were so good. We particularly liked that the room was turned into a hip-hop club later on, we stayed on and danced. 10/10 experience, would definitely recommend it.”
