What Your 5 Days Will Feel Like
Each morning your instructor evaluates tides and conditions, then chooses the best session plan for the day. The first two sessions focus on fundamentals, you will be standing up and riding waves in the white water before the end of day two. Days three and four move you into green wave territory. The surf trip on day four changes the setting entirely: a new beach, different waves, and a real feel for what it means to be a surfer. Day five ties everything together with a review session and free surfing time in the water.

What our surfers say on Google
Read all our reviews on Google“My husband and I tried a few other surf schools in Tamarindo… In just one hour, he explained what we hadn't managed to learn in three previous days. By the end, my husband and I were able to surf our first waves on our own.”
“The instructors made me feel comfortable and not intimidated at all, even as a beginner. They explain everything in a simple way and are super patient.”
“We booked very last minute because we have a two year old with us… he was very accommodating and that made our experience even more memorable.”
