This is an excellent experience for the whole family. Lucinda kept my 5-year-old granddaughter engaged. Everyone left with a smile and a feeling of accomplishment.

My 9 year old and I booked an hour long class and learned so much! Lucinda is a great instructor and with her help we had an amazing castle. We can’t wait to hit the beach tomorrow and try our new skills.

This was perfect for our family! We traveled with parents, grandmother, and two teens, and this activity was just the right level for everyone to enjoy and participate in. Jose helped us build, and he was very thourough in showing us what to do and how to do it, while giving us lots of encouragement and opportunity for creativity and hands-on doing it ourselves. I would definitly recommend this as an add-on to your beach vacation!

My family really enjoyed the lesson! They were blown away. Everyone left talking about how they have been building sandcastles wrong over the years. Highly recommend.

I booked this for my family and we were blown away. We learned so much about building a sand castle the proper way. Lucinda was great. She was very patient with my daughter and explained things on her level. My daughter loved showing off what we did that morning as people walked by the rest of the day. Lucinda let us borrow some tools so we were able to take what we learned to keep building sand castles during our stay. Your beach trip is not complete without this!

Not really good. We booked one and half hour session where our guide was in a hurry and went away after one hour 15 min. We as beginners go slow but he expects us to finish fast and kids couldn’t enjoy at all. Not sure about other guides but our guide didn’t do well.

Excellent instruction. Our small group of 3 build the largest most detailed sandcastle we ever have in under 2 hours. We were taught how to make a solid foundation, build tall towers and add fine details all using simple tools.

We had a group of 14 people ranging in age from 7 to 71 and we all had a really great time building our sandcastles. It was definitely one of the highlights of the trip.

I was at SPI for my 20th anniversary. I love to play in the sand and build sandcastles and always wondered how they build those magical huge works of art. When I saw the class I knew I had to sign up. I had so much fun! my instructor was kind, knowledgeable, got me started on a great sand castle, taught me so much and I can't wait to build more! what a great service to offer!
