About Tribu Surf nicaragua
Tribu Surf is a 100% local surf school in San Juan del Sur, Nicaragua, founded by Nicaraguan surfer and ISA-certified surf coach Pedro.
Our local instructors combine years of surfing experience with a deep knowledge of Nicaragua's Pacific coastline to help beginners, intermediate and advanced surfers enjoy the waves safely and confidently.
Meet the Founder
Pedro (also known as "Pichiche") founded Tribu Surf. As a young kid, he was already fascinated by surfing. After practicing and practicing, he realized that surfing, far from simply being a sport, is a lifestyle.
Little by little, he gained experience and got the opportunity to start working as a surf coach. Tourism in Nicaragua kept growing and with time he started learning English and enjoyed the opportunity to meet and connect with new people from all over the world. Finally, he achieved the position of Head Surf Coach in a prestigious surf school.
After obtaining his ISA certification as a Surf Coach in England, he returned to Nicaragua and founded Tribu Surf, a 100% local Nicaraguan surf school in San Juan Del Sur.
