Matt Weiler ISA Certified Surf Instructor
Before I landed in Jiquilillo in 2017 I first learned to surf in Australia in 2008. I surfed around the northern beaches in Sydney, some of the Gold Coast and a bit in New Zealand. After that I was lucky enough to get an assistant instructor position at a surf camp in north Spain. For two consecutive summers I helped introduce surfing to so many people and maintain contact with a lot of them to this day.In between summers I surfed France and Morocco. Since then I have discovered surfing the lakes in Canada and enjoyed Nova Scotia’s fun waves as well. Lastly, in November of 2015 I completed a five day lifeguard course and became certified as an International Surfing Association level 1 Surf Coach. It’s an accomplishment I am super proud of and love sharing my passion with other people.See you out there.
Volcano Boarding on Cerro Negro
Do you want to check off a “bucket list” adventure? Well look no further than boarding down Nicaragua’s youngest active volcano, Cerro Negro. Making the ascent to the 708 metre summit is part of the adventure. Once at the top you can walk to the edge of the steaming caldera of the volcano. From this vantage point you can see other volcanoes from the nearby Telica to the giant to the north San Cristobal. When you are ready to go you will blast down the side of Cerro Negro and experience an adventure that will not soon be forgotten.
Yoga in Paradise
A daily Yoga session is an amazing way to compliment your surfing adventure. Jiquilillo Beach provides the perfect “zen” atmosphere to disconnect and be one with your practice. Yoga and surfing are disciplines that are connected through movement, nature and soul. All classes with our certified instructor will be conducted only steps away from the ocean.
