Me and a bunch of friends went down to Jaco for surf lessons. All of us were at varying levels of experience. We all had the most amazing time .....and have been depressed since returning to the States. We surfed with people recognized in the world, and were shown a remarkable time by some truly amazing and patient people. A... More

You have to book surf lessons through her. Not only are the lessons awesome, if you already know how to surf, she will send you out with a pro that has been surfing these waves since they were in the womb, put you in the best spots, and ensure you are killing it all day. We did 4 days and... More

I cant say enough about Debbia and Flaco!!! They run the Dominical Surf Camp in Jaco. I planned a 8 person surf camp and was very impressed with everything. Debbie was so helpful prior to the trip, during the trip and after the trip!! She spoke with me via email and on the phone to make sure all our accommodations... More

My experience with Debbie and Flaco wildly exceeded my expectations and I couldn’t recommend anyone more than these two amazing people! I work as a pilot and travel a lot for a living, but the experience I had in Jaco with Dominical Surf Lessons was the highlight of any vacation I’ve ever had! This was my first trip dedicated to...

My son and I took surfing lessons from Debbie. In the second lesson with my 14 year old beginner son, Debbie had him out with the big boys in the line up. Watching him drop in a wave taller than him and ride it like a local was just awesome. During our lesson, she was very patient and spent all... More

I am a pretty adventurous and am always trying new things. This means I often take lessons, and they do not always go so well. Often the instructor is not patient, does not explain directions well or seems to just be pushing you through to get to the next guy and make a quick buck. I had the complete opposite... More

I enrolled in the Ultimate Surf Adventure package expecting just a week of surf lessons, but what I received was so much more. First, to comment on the surf instruction, I’ve had a couple surf lessons before, but nothing tops Dominical. Debbie was able to pinpoint what I was doing wrong (which was many things actually) after watching me for... More

We used Debbie and Dominical Surf Lessons twice again this year and it was hands down the best activity of our trip. Debbie always remembers us and we seem to pick up right where we left off the year before. This was our third year using her. Our ages are 55, 27 and 17. The very best part of Dominical... More

My husband surfed as a kid in N. California, and is now a Medicare Man. We had both fooled around with a few surf lessons here & there: Hawaii, Mexico, etc. But we learned things with Debbie Zec and her surf instructors that even he didn't know from his years of surfing as a kid. Debbie is THE surf instructor... More
