Instructors
John Urcia
John is the main surf trainer and surf coach of Urcia Surf School. Practicing surf from 20 years ago, he was competing in his early years and became Peru's vice-champion in 2007. He has been working for surf competitions for 10 years and organizing surf competitions for two years. What makes him so special is that he has a lot of experience with beginners (also at daily work, he still holds most of the classes) as well as with professionals. He is training Peru's best riders, who are competing worldwide! For him, surfing is a vocation.
Location
The surf hostel is located two blocks away from the beach "La Curvita" in Huanchaco, where you can always count on good surfing conditions, especially for beginners and intermediate surfers. Huanchaco is an extraordinary surf destination in Peru. Huanchaco has consistent waves, thousands of years of surf history, excellent hospitality, and competitions for all ages. There are five separate breaks in Huanchaco, stretching across over a kilometer of beaches, for all different surf levels.
Most breaks here work at all tides. Currents in Huanchaco can be strong. Although the currents are usually not dangerous, they can certainly give you a workout! In September, along with the start of the Peruvian spring, sand movements begin; the rocky beaches can be covered with sand until the summer. These sand movements can cause some small variation in the breaks and their position.
