We have only great things to say about Outdoor Ecuador! We had a week of surf lessons in the morning and Spanish lessons in the afternoon. The lessons were all fantastic quality. Davide was a brilliant and technical surf instructor. In a week he took us from never having touched a surf board to standing up and feeling confident in the ocean. Dario was an excellent, kind and incredibly patient spanish teacher. Over the weeks course we went from really no Spanish at all to being able to have basic conversations and gaining an understanding of grammar. The lessons all take place in the lovely beach town of Olon with its big beach and lots of cafes/ restaurants. Leo did a great job of helping us organise everything in Olon and was really helpful and responsive over email before we arrived. Bruno drove us to Olon from Guayaquil and the transfer was very smooth and hassle free. Outdoor Equador has such a welcoming and friendly atmosphere that you immediately feel part of their community. After a week it is very difficult to leave! I would recommend anyone in Ecuador to spend some time there.

I had the most wonderful time with Outdoor Ecuador! Lessons with Luis were amazing, as we conversed in Spanish all the time and shared so many laughs. Having 3 hours of private Spanish lessons each day with Luis, and 1,5 hour of private surfing lessons with David was all anyone can ask for. During my stay I stayed with a local family, which was such a lovely, warm and humbling experience. The stay was organized by Outdoor Ecuador, who helped me with everything. I stayed for one week and my Spanish improved so much. Una organización increíble, muchos gracias por todo!

Outdoor Ecuador was one of my favourite experiences while travelling through Ecuador and Peru. The vibes here are incredible & welcoming and the staff are some of the sweetest people I’ve met. Our surf lessons were amazing and super reasonably priced, and the surf boards are awesome quality.
We also rented boards after our lessons and the prices cannot be beat.
Special shoutout to Leo, who works there, for being so cool!
Highly recommend this place to anyone looking to surf or work on their Spanish skills.

My surf coach David was wonderful! He helped me a lot to improve my surfing during 7 days and he gave me really good tips. I got really into surfing!
I had 5 Spanish classes with Luis. The atmosphere in classes were very relaxed and learning was fun! It was really good way to start learning Spanish.
All the other staff members were also super friendly and I felt really welcomed in Olon! I can just recommend Outdoor Ecuador 🤙🏼

Our family had a great time studying with Outdoor Ecuador! All of the staff were very helpful and they made our stay in Olon a wonderful experience! We took online Spanish lessons with Outdoor Ecuador prior to our stay in Olon, which was extremely beneficial and gave us a head start on our in-person lessons. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who is visiting the area!

It was a great experience, we had the 5 days Spanish and surfer package. I feel like we learned a lot of the key words to function as a traveller. The surfing was fun and we are definitely going to try surfing again.

Hi. It is $10 per hour.
Please check their website, it is nicely done and very clear.
I highly recommend this school. The community in Olón is fantastic and plenty of accommodation for a very good price.
