They take both card and cash, also have mountain bikes and body boards for rent and a place to change. Would definitely rent from them again!

The guys in the shop took the time to get me fitted to the bike and made any adjustments needed without hesitation. They also provided a nice newer helmet(several to choose from). I rode a few days while there, a mix of gravel around town and the single track ride over to San pancho. The trails are found on the trail forks app. Any competent mountain biker would be fine. If I could do it over again I would probably have hired the guide for half the day, just so I wasn't having to stop and get my phone out at every trail intersection. They were building new trails and I look forward to headed back down there asap..

    We took our two kids here to experience swimming with dolphins and they had a great time and…read moreinstructors were great, however at the of course they try to get you by selling you all the photos and videos which is ok but at the price they charge and for what they actually give you is an absolute RIP OFF! I ended up purchasing all photos and videos, I even paid extra for my son to swim with the dolphin which was about 30 seconds long. When I go to check out and purchase I noticed all the videos were only 3-5 seconds long. I paid over $200 for these just to get a life time experience with my kid and received only 5 videos each for 3 seconds long. The one he swam around the pool was maybe 30 seconds long but I only received a video for 7 seconds. Very lame and disappointing that these places are all a tourist trap and take advantage of all tourists. I mentioned it to the guy at the end who checked me out and he said " this is how we do it here." great professional answer. Don't go here because you would want photos and videos which you will get nothing for what you're paying. Rip off

    This whole crew is great. We went out with Alex Sr. (father), his two sons--Alex Jr. and…read moreDiego--and their dog Simon for surfing lessons. The waves nearby did not look great in the morning so when we arrived they took us by boat to a nearby spot that was much better. They gave us quick and helpful instructions on the beach, brought us protective shirts for the water, and brought along snacks and water (and boards, of course). The spot could not have been better for complete beginners and intermediate surfers alike. The breaks were good, smooth, and relatively predictable but not so tame as to be boring. The water was warm and the area was not crowded (we went early in the day--i.e., 9:30 am--and were there in mid-September). I've posted a photo taken from a cliff above our surf spot. It really was perfect. We enjoyed it so much that a few of us went back out with them two days later. This time, we drove in our rental car to the same spot. Alex and company brought the boards in their truck. Afterwards, Alex Jr. also took us to a nearby spot for a quick sip of raicilla upon our asking. They also tipped us off on where to find good tacos in town and a fun dinner place outside of town. All around, this is a really fun crew who enjoy what they do and are very good at it. I highly recommend them.

    Amazing experience. The team is super friendly. Mara came to pick us up close to our hotel in…read moreNuevo Vallarta. She drive us to a wild secluded beach close to Punta de Mita. The ride was ultra comfortable and we had cold coconut water, fruits and snacks to enjoy during the trip. Once we got there, we met Roberto, our Surf Instructor, who had the surfboards setup on the beach and everything ready to go. He 1st gave us an explanation of everything we needed to know to enjoy the class and ride our first waves. Then we jumped in the water. Both my girlfriend and I were able to ride several waves close to shore and also a bit further out where waves were bigger and stronger. Roberto was always next to us making us feel safe at all the time. Mara took pictures of us and we got the pictures included in the price of the tour which was a very nice touch. After the lesson, she brought us back to the hotel. They were all very friendly and they provide an excellent service from start to finish. I highly recommend Green Lagoon Surfing and their tours.

    I popped in to WildMex with my 2 kids (11 & 13) to see if there was any chance they could get a…read moresurf lesson at La Lancha. Front desk staff was impressively friendly, explained how it all works, and somehow managed to immediately get them a private instructor even though they appeared super busy. Sunshirts/rashguards were available to borrow but I'm glad kids had their own. Paschalis (Pascal) their teacher was AMAZING! Absolutely overflowing with enthusiasm and encouragement. He chose the right waves and got the kids going on them, so all they really had to do was pop up. Beach was busy with instructors and beginners, but Pascal was completely focused on my kiddos. They had a blast and I had even more fun watching the smiles! Lesson was 2 hours, with about 1.5hr in the water. The beach is beginner friendly. Lesson includes the surfboard. There's also a photographer at the beach and I'd definitely recommend budgeting to buy the photos. For 2 kids, with their own teacher, the lesson was $85/ea and pics were $55 for 1st kid and $15 for 2nd we got 36 fabulous photos. They had so much fun, we're going back for another lesson today!

Quinty even gave her a little education on her home country of the Netherlands. What a great experience to surf in Mexico while learning a little Dutch culture. She's a high energy instructor with an even higher surf IQ so please don't hesitate to book a lesson with her if you want to make the most of your La Lancha surf sessions. She's also very protective and observant while instructing, ensuring the safest learning environment for your friends and loved ones. ALL of the WildMex instructors are top notch, but my kiddo has already stated that she will only work with Quinty as long as she's available :) Thanks to the entire team at WildMex for making this surf holiday so memorable!
