Surfing lesson
To start your Costa Rica surfing adventure, all you’ll need is basic swimming knowledge and a good sense of humor. The conditions for surfing at Tamarindo Beach are ideal for surfers of all levels, our hotel offers some of the best instructors and surfers in the area; they will make sure that everybody has a good time out in the ocean, the lessons are given in front of the hotel, which is based on a 15-minute theoretical lesson And 1 hour and 45 min. practice, after having taken the lessons you can use the surfboard 2 hours more.
We guarantee you will be standing up and riding your first wave in just one lesson! In addition, since Costa Rica is a world-class surfing area, we know that surf tourists from the world over come to check us out. Therefore, we offer the more advanced surfer guided trips to some of the other surf spots around, or, if desired, lessons for intricate tricks. Of course, if you brought your own surfboard and just want some local knowledge or if you want to rent a board and go off on your own, that’s okay too.
Witch´s Rock and Ollies point surf tour
The 12 hours trip departs out flamingo at first light. Depending on the tide we will head to witch´s(high tide) or ollie´s point(low tide). With the breaks only being 30 minutes apart it allows for a quick lunch break point in between sessions. Hollow barrels at witch´s rock on a shallow sand bottom and a long right point break at ollie´s. There is no better set up to surf two of the best surf spots on the same day. Bring sun screen, your best board and as much energy as you muster up. If the surf is big enough and the direction is right a few steps at some other spots in this area will blow you away.
