Founder · Local Surf Guide · Surf Coach
“Before I learned to surf, I learned to listen to the ocean.”
“For over 30 years, the waves of Salina Cruz have been my home and my classroom. I never competed — I chose the path of a free soul surfer.”
Abi
Local Surfer · Former Fisherman · Surf Guide
Born and raised in Playa Brasil, Abi grew up with the ocean as part of everyday life. A former fisherman and Uriel’s godson, he brings years of local knowledge and a deep understanding of this coastline to every surf day.
ALEXIS
Local Surfer · Surf Guide · LunaCoral Crew
Alexis is Uriel’s nephew and has been working alongside him for about four years. A local surfer who knows this coastline firsthand, he brings energy, local knowledge and another set of experienced eyes to every surf day.
Surf Coach · Competitive Surfer · Mexican National Champion
Linda Coral grew up surfing these waves with Uriel as her coach. Today she competes at national and international level, bringing a younger competitive perspective to LunaCoral’s coaching — from technique and heat strategy to the small details that help surfers perform under pressure.
How Our Salina Cruz Surf Guides & Coaches Work Together
Our Salina Cruz surf guides and coaches work together to combine local knowledge, wave selection and personalized support in the water.
We don’t work like a big surf operation. We move as a small local crew that knows this coast, watches the conditions, and makes decisions together. Uriel leads the day, Abi and Alexis bring their local knowledge and experience in the water, and Linda adds the eye of a competitive surfer and coach.
Some days that means waiting. Some days it means driving farther. Some days it means changing the plan completely. The goal is always the same: put you in the right place, at the right time, with people who genuinely care about your surfing.
No schedules built in an office. No formula. Just local knowledge, experience, and a team that has spent its life around these waves.
