our Story
Marley Puglielli, Owner and Founder of Miami Surf Experience, was born and raised in Miami, where he first learned to surf in the warm, blue waters of South Beach. His passion for the sport quickly took off, and he began competing at an amateur level in surfing events up and down the east coast of the United States. With dedication and hard work, Marley earned sponsorships and made a name for himself as a professional surfer, eventually becoming a Quiksilver team rider and taking on the waves of Puerto Rico for several years to pursue his dreams.
Throughout his professional surfing career, Marley traveled all over the world, riding the waves of different oceans and cultures. However, Miami always held a special place in his heart, and he eventually settled back in his hometown to share his love of surfing with others. This passion led him to create Miami Surf Experience, where he now offers private and group surf lessons for all ages, surf coaching, and mentorship for the next generation of surfers.

My 10 yr old daughter Avery had an amazing experience with Marley!! She loved it! Marley was a pro surfer who loves to share his love and knowledge of surfing. He is super positive and chill while giving amazing instruction- creating such a fun lesson. Avery was able to get up on 25+ waves during her first lesson!

Marley, the instructor, is hands down the most knowledgeable and patient instructor I have ever experienced for a surf lesson. His methods of teaching made it very easy for me to understand. If you’re in the Miami area, I would highly recommend booking a lesson with him
