This tropical surf getaway in Puerto Rico offers warm waters year-round, an incredible surfing community, exciting waves, and several sandy beaches just waiting to be explored. Although you can ride the waves throughout the entire year, peak seasons are during the fall and spring months. In the northwest part of Puerto Rico is Aguadilla, a small city with plenty of options for all skill levels from beginners to surf masters. The nearly 5-mile coastline, Punta Borinquen, stretches from Crash Boat to Surfer’s Beach. It was designated the Caribbean’s first World Surfing Reserve in 2018. There are over a dozen protected surfing points such as Table Tops, Wilderness, Crash Boat Beach, and Manglito. This water sport enthusiasts’ paradise is not only special for its action-packed surfing, but its rich history, vibrant community, and a mix of traditional and modern culture.

57hours is committed to providing safe outdoor adventure experiences. We require all guides using our platform to have a COVID-19 safety plan and to make the details of that plan accessible to travelers. In most cases, group sizes will be reduced, guides will avoid overcrowded locations, and other safety measures will be met depending on the location and activity.
We also expect clients to respect local regulations and take measures to protect themselves, guides and the communities they’re travelling to. For more information on COVID-19 measures in Puerto Rico, please refer to the Discover Puerto Rico websites.
Please contact us if you have any questions or require further information. We are happy to provide you with the most up-to-date information!
This is what you get with 57hours:
What’s not included:
No one expects you to swim like you’re in the Olympics, but you need to be able to keep your head above water and know how to tread.
You’ll feel much more comfortable in the ocean if you’re sure you can swim at least two lengths of a pool. Keep in mind that surfing is physically straining, like any sport, so you should prepare beforehand with stretching and light cardio. This way, you’ll be better equipped to handle what the ocean throws, and in a better position to ride the waves with ease.
This adventure is family-friendly! However, for kids who are not very good swimmers, we recommend a one-on-one private lesson. They will be kept in shallow water with the constant and complete attention of an expert surf instructor.
Surf lessons are recommended for anyone new to surfing.
The waves in Puerto Rico are ideal for first-timers. A surf instructor will teach you how to be safe, have fun and work toward standing up on your board. It’s all worth a bit of practice, we promise!
Swimsuit, towel, sunscreen, water, snacks and good vibes — we’ll take care of the rest.
