Join Maximo Nivel's Surf School in Guatemala and El Salvador

by MAXIMO NIVEL
Program Overview
The Maximo Nivel Guatemala surf school is located in El Zonte, El Salvador.
Here’s how it works:
The Maximo staff pick you up at the airport in Guatemala and take you just over the border to El Salvador. With this incredible program, you not only escape for a beach getaway, but also experience another country and culture.
El Zonte, a small village divided by the mouth of a river, offers a relaxing atmosphere and is home to many local surfers. Outside of surfing, enjoy hanging out by the hotel pool, kicking back in a hammock, and taking in the ocean view.
The week-long surf school package includes:
– Airport pick-up in Guatemala City
– Round-trip shuttle bus transportation (between La Antigua and El Salvador)
– English-speaking, certified instructor
– Surf equipment rental
– 6 hours of professional surf instruction
– 6 nights of housing
Depending on field conditions and travel logistics, the surf school is sometimes moved to the well-known El Paredon surf destination on Guatemala’s Pacific coast, with uncrowded, black-sand beaches, easy waves, and great instructors.
