Jeroen Mutsaars co-founded Swell in 2009, building the retreat in Cabarete from bare land with his wife Clare after years running a European surf travel company. Fifteen-plus seasons on the beach, six watersports ridden himself, and several thousand adult beginners coached from their first wave onward.
