How we stand out:

We are not only a surf school, we like to think of our guests/students as family and we whole heartedly want to show our family around our hometown, so think of it as a trip to your family’s vacation spot.

To uncover your true potential you must first find your own limits and then you have to have the courage to blow past them.

Our team really enjoys showing our guests local spots, such as local hidden surf spots, beautiful rivers, waterfalls and tide pools that a lot of the locals do not know of.

We are not only a surf school,
we like to think of our guests/students

Pack your bags!

An authentically Costa Rican adventure awaits

Submersing our guests in the jungle, showing and teaching them about our local animals, trees and plants is a great way to make you feel at home.

One passion we have is to show our guests local cuisine, we often take you back to Mamas house for home cooked, traditional meals to experience then real pura vida lifestyle. Truly only a experience you can receive from a local who was born and raised here in the southern Nicoya peninsula. Your lessons do not have to end when you leave the water or beach, you can continue to learn and surround yourself with the culture we have here in Costa Rica.

Our Mission

Fun! Fun! Fun!

First and foremost our goal is to provide fun and safety in the waves while also providing constructive lessons to help structure and improve your surf skills.

For Everyone

We teach all skill levels from first timers to competitive surfers.

“Our pursuit is to not only expose you to the waves Costa Rica has but also to show you the culture, food, people and vibes this beautiful place has to offer outside of the water. We have a calling to reveal to you Costa Rica from the locals’ eyes.”

Home of the Best Waves on the Planet

Where can I surf in Costa Rica for beginners?

Everywhere in Costa Rica is a great spot to learn and get practice so long as you are with an experienced guide. There are plenty of beaches with nice white waters to practice your pop ups and great smaller waves to gain more experience and create more confidence in the water, especially here in our hometown of Santa Teresa.

Montezuma waterfalls

Just south of the town of Montezuma is a series of beautiful waterfalls. It is a moderate 40 Minute hike that crosses over the beautiful Rio Montezuma and through plenty of swimming holes. There are 3 total waterfalls, a large 18M waterfall at the bottom with a beautiful large swimming hole. The second is a 12M waterfall that offers a beautiful jump point into a gorgeous swimming hole. The top waterfall is a easy 6M waterfall that hosts a beautiful jump site as well into a crystal blue pool.

Year-round, long distance, SW swells from the South Pacific

Less crowded than the beaches of Sydney, Hawaii or Southern California, the sandy stretches of Costa Rica offer plenty of swells, breaks and surf shops. Costa Rica is home to some of the best waves on the planet, crashing along beaches that are clean and blissfully empty.

Group + Single Lessons

a board meeting you won’t mind attending

We teach all skill levels from first timers to competitive surfers. Learn the “unwritten” rules and regulations of the ocean to keep everyone educated, happy, and safe. Experience a connection to one another and to the ocean and elements present in each surf session.

Fun Outside
the Water

push your limits

Canopy tours, waterfalls, swimming hole and rope swing, mountain hiking, experience true wildlife and watch as monkeys who live in the preserve swing from the trees. We have a lot of great family and friends that are doing fun and adventurous experiences or services. Need we say more?

Local Cuisine

experience the Costa Rican gifts of nature

If you want to dive into the culture of Costa Rica you have to try its food. Costa Rican food is tasty rather than spicy. Costa Rica travel is not complete without having tried the national dish Gallo Pinto, a dish of black beans and rice with onions and cilantro.
