I had an amazing experience . The stay was so good and Nithish was very professional and helpful. All the team including Nithish, Bharath , Seshan and Akhilesh ( the cutest trainer) made my mammalipuram experience great. I even got to meet Nithish’s family. The surfing lessons were taught with lot of patience and the stay was very good. The room was very neat and clean. Thank you so much team - Surf and Stay!

Had an amazing experience at Mahab Surf Club in Mahabalipuram! 🌊🏄♀️ The entire vibe of the place is super welcoming, and the instructors truly make it special. A big thank you to Nitish and Bharat for being such fantastic coaches — patient, calm, and very professional. They even took us into deeper waters and guided us with so much confidence and care, which made the whole experience feel safe and exciting. What really stood out to me was their teaching approach. I’ve visited other surf schools in Goa where a lot of time was spent on theoretical practice like pop-ups on land. But here, after a quick warm-up and a few practice pop-ups, they got us straight into the ocean. That hands-on experience made a huge difference and helped us learn much faster and better. They also encouraged us to carry our own surfboards to the ocean, which built a sense of responsibility. Even when there were no waves, they made sure we practiced pop-ups in the water itself. Plus, they gave us plenty of useful tips for improving our pop-up technique and handling things in the ocean. Whether you're a complete beginner or looking to improve your skills, this is the perfect place to start your surfing journey. Highly recommend Mahab Surf Club to anyone visiting Mahabalipuram! Can’t wait to come back again! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
