Surf coaching · Cold water · Free-diving
Cold water is honest. It tells you exactly where you are.
Dario grew up surfing the Vicentina coast and coaching beginners on the same beaches his father fished from. He discovered cold water on a trip to Norway and has been in the sea through every winter since.
He leads our surf and cold-water retreats with a rare mix of patience and mischief.
