A Note About Reviews
At Nomad Surfers, we welcome all feedback — it helps us keep improving year after year. Like any busy summer camp, we know that not every single guest will have the same experience. Sometimes there are small hiccups, sometimes expectations differ, and sometimes a story might get told in a way that doesn’t reflect the whole picture.
What we can say with pride is that over 99% of our campers leave happy, many return the next summer, and our camps have been fully booked for years. The best proof? The growing number of families who recommend us to their friends and keep coming back for more surfing, friendships, and fun.
