    Hi. I'm Captain Manny Vargas. I can't wait to show you the epic side of wave riding.

    I've been traveling the world in search of waves for over 35 years. As a former professional bodyboarder, lifeguard, podcaster, and international announcer for bodyboard and surf competitions, I have a wealth of knowledge that I enjoy sharing with others. In 2003, I began running tours to follow my passion for ocean sports. When you are on a surf trip with me, I take out all the worries and hassles that are involved with the logistics so you can relax while we search for the perfect waves. Sharing my decades of ocean knowledge with others is my passion. I can't wait to show you an epic experience.

    Have a look around my website for more information. Please contact me with any questions that you may have about any tour packages, photo/video sessions, and/or video surf coaching.

    Baja Weekender was one of the most fun weekends I've had. Tons of surf (including some AMAZING photos + videos), superb food and a lot of laughing with a cool group. Thank you Manny!

    Manny is a great guide and whether you've been on many trips or this is your first time, he makes you feel like you've been friends forever. He's very knowledgeable and takes all of the hassle out of traveling. We had a blast surfing, eating good food, and look forward to planning our next tour.

    Manny is "The Man"! We had an awesome time on an impromptu day boat trip out of SD. Manny is like the Swiss army knife of tour guides. He is your guide, a historian, an expert waterman, and your hype man... constantly feeding you the stoke! Can't wait for our next adventure!

    Thank you all so much for this experience! It really was a magical weekend and I feel like I definitely learned so much. I also want to thank you all for capturing me while surfing as it has been such a help with making me better.

    Took my daughter on a weekend trip with Manny in November. What a blast! The 3 other surfers (2 women and 1 guy) were a joy to be with. The food was awesome as promised and the surf local was spot on. Manny is more than accommodating. You can't go wrong.
