“A Structured Surf Progression Week in South Costa Rica — Small Group, Premium Coaching”

Our location

Your retreat unfolds in a slice of paradise - a stunning 8,000m2 ocean front property nestled along the Golfo Dulce, on the southern stretch of the pacific coast of Costa Rica.

Our unique location allows us to adjust to swell intensity, allowing us to easily move to more sheltered or exposed beaches in the area. This way, we can surf at the best spot that complements your abilities.

Our week’s schedule is optimized to surf at ideal tides, ensuring that we hit the water at optimal times.

Surf Coaching Experience

This retreat is built for surfers serious about improving — not overcrowded surf camps.

Our “Learn to Surf” package is designed for beginner and intermediate surfers looking to progress quickly with a structured, hands-on approach.

Includes:

• 10 in-water surf sessions of 2-3h each for an average of 25h of in-water sessions.

• 5 surf theory classes

• Daily video analysis with your coach

Beginner Surfers

Whether it’s your first wave or you’re building consistency, we meet you at your level.

Coaches are in the water with you at all times — positioning you correctly, guiding you through each wave, and ensuring both safety and progression.

With a maximum ratio of 3 students per coach, you receive constant feedback and personal attention.

Our goal: by the end of the week, you’ll feel confident surfing independently and understanding the ocean.

Intermediate Surfers

For intermediates, the focus shifts to precision and refinement.

Through detailed video analysis and in-water coaching, we identify key areas for improvement and work on the adjustments that make the biggest difference.

You’ll spend as much time in the water as possible — typically two sessions per day (2–3 hours each), depending on conditions and energy levels.

$2,900 — includes surf equipment
