This is a surfscool i can warmly recomend to everyone! less...

Surf class Fantastic people. Jane and her people are very professional and do their best for us to learn surf. More than teachers, they are friends of their students.

Best surf school in Itacaré! Can't recommended this surf school enough! The instructors are fantastic and genuinely invested in the success of each student.

They keep the size of the classes small (one instructor to every 2/3 students) so they can cater well to different levels of skill. I had never surfed before and the three day course was the perfect intro. I ended up extending my stay in Itacaré to spend a week surfing with Meninas do Mar because I was making so much progress and having such a good time. Thank you Jane, Zuqueto, James, Rosie and Marcel! less...

I stayed at Itacare for 2 months with a target to learn how to surf, starting from zero. I had the luck to spend most of this time with Meninas do Mar. My evolution and progress passed my expectations, thanks to Jane’s and Juqueto’s teaching. They were spending time with me before the class on the beach, doing exercises that would make my body movements come more naturally on the waves. They were staying in the water throughout all the period of each class always supporting, correcting, motivating and pushing me to go to the next level. At the end of the day we would review the video of the lesson indicating all the things that needed improvement and the progress that had been made. During that time I got the necessary push from Juqueto to advance to a level in which I had the confidence to enjoy stronger waves and start seeking for more adrenaline.

The passion of Jane and Juqueto in teaching surfing is clear and for that reason they keep small group numbers. I could feel their true joy and excitement as I was improving during the period I was there.

Also, for me something very important was that with Meninas do Mar the time with them did not stop after the surf lesson. Many times I was invited at their home together with their friends and other students for dinner, the delicious Fish Moceca cooked by Juqueto. I went to Itacare alone and after few weeks I knew half of the people at the village, the best places to eat, organic markets, local producers and many other thing (when it comes to food Jane can give you the best tips).

Because of Meninas do Mar not only I made my dream of being able to surf true (at the age of 42), I enjoyed all the beauties of Itacare, I met very interesting people and I made good friends. less...

I loved it so much I went back a year later and I hope to keep going back. A beginner at the age of 36, I was really nervous in the waves, but the instructors made me feel so safe. They are so hands-on it's impossible not to learn and progress. The video lessons were really helpful. I can't recommend this school enough. less...

Someone encouraged me to try again with Jane and her team at Meninas do mar. It was amazing! I was getting up on my first day and quickly became a surf addict. She and Zuceto are really professional teachers. They make sure they take you to the right beach with good conditions and ensure that everyone feels comfortable. The video session that they provide after is really helpful to start to make improvements. She also provides you with a rash guard, so you don't need to bring your own. I thought I was going to do the 3 day package and now I am on day 10!!! It's a great way to meet other people in town. She even made a big group dinner for us one night. Thank you Meninas do mar!! I will be back. less...
