The Surf in Costa Rica is great all year round. During the high season, we surf at the closest beach to the camp called Playa Carmen, a sandy beach, and it is located only a few minutes walk from the camp. This spot is suited for beginners, intermediate and advanced surfers. The beach is within walking distance, so you can also practice outside lessons if the conditions allow.
During the wet season, we usually head to a sand-bottom beach called Playa Hermosa, located a short drive away from the camp. This spot gets great waves during that time of the year. A great spot for all levels of surfers.
Advanced surfers can also check out Sunset Reef, a lefthander reef break, located close to the camp.
If you book our surf package all equipment is included in the price. If you are used to surfing a specific board we do recommend that you bring your own board if possible so you get to surf the board you want, you can of course use our equipment as well throughout your stay to try out different sizes. If you book our only stay package you can rent equipment from us while at the camp.
The water temperature in Costa Rica is warm and pleasant, so we surf in bikinis or boardshorts. We strongly recommend bringing a rasguard and all other equipment, which can protect you from the sun (hat, leggings etc).
