Captain Manny V Safely Shows You The Epic Side Of Baja

Of course loads of Americans cross the border into Mexico all year long to enjoy all of the amazing things our neighboring country has to offer: the gracious Mexican people, the stunning natural beauty, the surf breaks, the food!! It's truly a wonderland. But I'm here to tell you that experiencing the adventure with Manny as your guide takes it to the next level! A van full of surf ladies, escorted by our amiable host, set off on Friday afternoon for our Epic journey. We were late getting into Puerto Nuevo for our lobster dinner, but our night was saved by a quick phone call to the owner of Manny's favorite lobster spot. The restaurant had closed, but opened up for us. An incredible lobster feast was served, we ate until we almost burst, and were beyond thankful to the hosts and Manny both. This was our first glimpse into the magic of having him with us. His relationships with the locals, built on respect and gratitude, is the special sauce. We experienced it at every turn. At Hortencia's K38 burrito stand, Manny was greeted with hugs. At the surf spot... more hugs. At the guard gate at Gaviotas, not hugs since these are big burly men, but heartfelt greetings just the same. When we

Manny was the best tour guide anyone could ask for. Our group had an amazing time surfing, eating, and having fun... Manny took care of the rest. We stayed steps away from the surf break. The surf was amazing! And no crowds was a huge plus. The photos, videos, and drone footage turned out great as well. Already thinking of planning my next trip. Such a stoked time!!

What an amazing weekend getaway with my amazing mom friends...from lobster to surf to tacos to wine tasting (Xaroma was the best!) to more surf, the weekend was a perfect treat! Manny catered to the group's surf abilities and found the right waves for our crew. The food was always amazing, he knows the local sweet spots for food and everywhere we went they seemed to know him and were genuinely happy to see Manny. The weekend was relaxing with no decisions to make and a fun time every place we went...I would have loved an extra day or two just to fit more in! Thank you Manny for an amazing Mother's Day weekend with my friends.

Did the Baja weekender with Epic Surf Tours which was full of tasty food and tasty waves. Manny is an expert surf guide. He knows Baja well and was able to find us fun, uncrowded breaks despite finicky weather, different abilities of the group, and it being a holiday weekend. Having Manny as your guide means you’re spending more time actually surfing and less time figuring out which spot to choose, where to paddle out, and where to sit. At the end of the day, reviewing Mannys drone footage on day 1 also helped me catch 10x more waves by day 3. When we weren’t surfing, we were exploring the area and eating amazing food. Manny is a gem and every local we ran into seemed to adore him - probably because he’s so respectful and generous. Epic surf tours is an ethical and authentic surf vacation, where you can show up with your boards and let an expert plan the rest.

Manny has curated a truly epic weekend that will fill your cup up with all the yummy food, fun surf and an abundance of beautiful footage too! From start to finish everything about the weekend felt super smooth, safe and easy. I feel like I just experienced a weeklong surf trip, hard to believe it was just the weekend. I look forward to many more trips with Manny in the future!

A huge thanks to Manny for our first-ever (long-anticipated, much-hyped) surf trip to Mexico. We felt so safe and supported, and it was such a fun excursion knowing that Manny was so well-prepared and thought through every detail possible. The surf photography and videos were such a special treat, a

Short but sweet! This trip is amazing. Manny really knows the ins and outs of the area, the break and the food! It was so rad getting to break down the surf video and review the break. This weekend gave me plenty to work on now that I'm home.

This is probably my 6th Baja Weekender with Manny V. My stoke for Baja just keeps growing after each trip. Manny always makes sure you are well fed and have surfed your brains out. Not only is the entire experience epic but afterwards you get access to all your photos and videos he captured of you surfing. You can laugh at all your wipeouts, remember those good waves and good times you had. This trip is for any level of surfer who is looking to have that amazing Baja experience. Thanks Manny :)

Incredible weekend surfing great waves with friends. The food was a highlight of the trip and the people were even better! The house sits right on the ocean with stunning views of Baja and the surf conditions below. Manny is not only an amazing leader and surfer but he's an awesome photographer/videographer. I would highly recommend this trip to everyone and I can't wait to do another one!

I've been fortunate enough to go on numerous wave riding missions with Manny Vargas. My 1st trip dating back to Cabo freak fest '05. I recently got back from my 3rd Baja weekender. Manny knows every wave and caters to the board you choose to ride. My bodyboarding group scored a secret wedge that I was hoping to ride for a while. Not only are there waves, the trip include lots of tasty food such as Breakfast Burritos, Tacos and Lobster. Thanks for showing me a great time MV. I'll see you on the next trip!
