    Awesome surf experience

    Jason was terrific! Kids had a blast and got to surf in a secluded surf break. Highly recommend - 5 stars!

    Sublime east cape/cabo surf excursion

    My family and I went surfing with Jason up on East Cape. Jason is so knowledgeable about where and when to go. Our teenage kids all loved him and had a blast. They all improved. And wife and I chilled on the tailgate, took pictures, snacked on home-smoked tuna jerky and had some cocktails. It was awesome.

    10 stars if you’re an experienced surfer and need a local to take you surfing!

    Connected with Jason through a long time, friend of mine, who is a professional surfer. This was my first time in Cabo… we went waaaaay out there, past Ship Wrecks on a hurricane swell that wrapped way up into the Sea of Cortez and SCORED a 150 Yard-long right point secret spot with only 1 other guy out! Jason brought lunch too! Jason is the real deal. 10 stars!

    Private Surf Lesson in Baja, East Cape: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for San Jose del Cabo.

    How much does Private Surf Lesson in Baja, East Cape cost?

    +

    Prices start at $210 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in San Jose del Cabo usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Private Surf Lesson in Baja, East Cape take?

    +

    Plan for about 3.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in San Jose del Cabo is not rushed.

    Is Private Surf Lesson in Baja, East Cape worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 57 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in San Jose del Cabo, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Private Surf Lesson in Baja, East Cape?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Private Surf Lesson in Baja, East Cape suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Private Surf Lesson in Baja, East Cape?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in San Jose del Cabo can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in San Jose del Cabo and add a light layer if any part of the 3.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Private Surf Lesson in Baja, East Cape start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central San Jose del Cabo within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in San Jose del Cabo?

    +

    On Outty we rank every San Jose del Cabo experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Cabo Electric Bike Beach Adventure with Margaritas and Lunch, Cabo 4x4 ATV Tour with Tequila Tasting and Mexican Buffet Lunch, La Paz Whale Shark Snorkeling Tour and Lunch From Los Cabos. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit San Jose del Cabo?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in San Jose del Cabo?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
