Mexico "Surfari"

Located between Puerto Vallarta and Mazatlan, the "Bay" has retained its charm as a quiet fishing village and nature preserve, whose estuary is the home of some of the rarest wildlife on the planet.

Stay at the renowned "La Quinta Inn" and delight in exquisite kosher cuisine with that touch of Latino flavor.

You will quickly master standing up on your board in the beautiful, easy rolling waves at Matanchen- an ideal and safe place for beginning surfers of any age.

Hands-on surfing instruction begins every morning with a two-hour lesson from our knowledgeable and safety conscious staff. After breakfast, you will practice skills learned that morning throughout the day, as long as you wish.

But that's just the beginning....Rabbi Shifren will explain the Surf and Soul holistic concept of incorporating the new knowledge gained in surfing, physical fitness, superior nutrition and positive thinking into your personal life, changing you and your relationships for the better.

Rabbi Shifren has spent more than 40 years as a big-wave surfer in Oahu's North Shore, the Mexican Pipeline, and Central America. A former Malibu lifeguard, he is certified in CPR and First Aid. He has traveled the US and Europe, speaking about his concepts before audiences, young and old. Join him on this unique adventure...the "Surf and Soul" concept!

"There is more to surfing than just riding waves. Rabbi Shifren's unique perspective on spirituality and religion, and his lifelong involvement with the ocean, will make his ‘surfari’ a very special journey into the heart and soul of surfing"…Shaun Tomson, former World Surfing Champion

"Great surf adventures are forged by great adventurers. To qualify you must be a leader who overcomes adversity, an athlete who overcomes obstacles and a person who overcomes challenges. Add a dose of spirituality with some perfect waves and you have the experience of a lifetime. Rabbi Shifren's ‘surfari’ to Mexico is one of those rare travel opportunities…"
Ira Oper, Surf Cinematographer, Producer of “Surfer’s Journal” Films

"Rabbi Shifren's "Surf and Soul" program was not only challenging and FUN,
but also taught our girls the importance of self-confidence."
Camp Mahanayim for Girls, Kfar Chabad, Israel
