We were two total beginners and had 4 sessions of kitesurf group lessons within a week, finally we were even partially able to ride upwind! It was a wonderful experience as Mauricio is such a highly competent teacher, a great motivator and an amazing person. He even took us to an outstanding kitesurf spot further north in El Cuyo to get perfect wind conditions. We would like to thank you so much for this unforgettable vacation and highly recommend this to everyone!

This was the best experience I could have imagined. Mauricio and Antonio were both incredible coaches and made the process really fun. Don’t look any further, just use these guys if you want to Kitesurf!
As winter guides and instructors ourselves, it's not easy for us to sign up for lessons and tours. Mauricio was absolutely perfect for a couple of hard to teach people such as ourselves. We did a 2 person kite lesson one day and a cenote paddle/snorkel another. Props to Mauricio for getting us on the right kiteboarding path and showing us his cenote "stashes". And the departure tacos...also 5 star.
I cannot tell you what a positive experience this was, but I will try! I was very excited to try Kite Surf lessons, however (although obvious in retrospect), I was not Considering how dependent kitesurfing was on the essential wind. But Mauricio messages us during our stay, to make our lessons shift to the most optimal time. I only wish we’d allowed more time for learning, because really would’ve loved a third lesson, which the wind did not permit in our short time frame. Lesson learned: start lessons early during the trip, have flexibility. Beau was our instructor and had an incredibly positive and encouraging energy. I loved watching him cut through the water to show us how to get up in the board...he made it all seem so easy. Everyone we worked with was encouraging and made the whole experience very positive. What a beautiful sport and time well spent with great teachers. Would do it again - only longer.
Every single person at MC Kite Surf is extremely friendly, helpful, easy going and super knowledgable. I would highly recommend doing any of the activities they offer. Whether it's paddle-boarding or kite surfing, they will show you an amazting time and you'll have so much fun. Remember to wear lots of sunscreen! Muchos saludos a Mauri, Pavel, Amaus y Audrey!
Great kite experience with Mauricio and his team. Although kite conditions are not always great in Tulum, we have discovered another spot at 2 hours (driving distance) to continue learning. Mauricio is a great instructor, highly patient and his team is great as well though I will recommend private lessons for a greater efficiency in the learning process
