Founder & Lead Instructor
Dex Lewis
Founder - Instructor -Surfer
Hi! I’m Dexter Lewis, a surfer, instructor, and tour guide based in Puerto Viejo de Limón, Costa Rica.
My surfing journey began at the age of 12, when the sport was first taking off in the region. From that moment, I knew my life would never be the same. Surfing has not only taken me to international waters, but also to many local Costa Rican breaks, where I’ve had the privilege of competing professionally and refining my skills on a wide range of waves.
My all-time favorite break? It’s right here in Puerto Viejo.
Salsa Brava is one of the most iconic and challenging reef breaks in Central America. Every time I surf here, it pushes me to my limits and inspires me anew—a constant reminder that surfing is truly a lifelong journey.
With 20 years of experience instructing surfers of all ages and abilities, I’ve dedicated my life to creating a safe, supportive environment where students can build the skills they need to navigate the waves. But above all, I emphasize the importance of having fun and connecting with the ocean.

Surf Experience
what the people say
Awesome group! Very friendly, super encouraging. Had a lot of fun learning from them
“A day with Dex and your relationship to the water may never be the same. After we learned the technicalities of surfing and how to ride a wave for the first time, Dex shared his wisdom of the sea, something I still carry with me. A day on the water comes down to respecting and cultivating an understanding of the ocean’s rhythms, patterns, presence, and unexpected lessons. His philosophy around the sport stems from a deep regard for the sea, something you can witness yourself when he tears through a barrel on a big swell in Cocles. But no matter what happens out there, he reminds us to have fun, PLAY, experiment, be kind (to others and yourself), and say thanks to this amazing part of nature that lets us dance on water.”
