Dominical Surf School

We had a great time much better than expected! Debbie and her team are such wonderful, warm-hearted people who always want to support and encourage you. Thank you so much for everything, I will never forget my time with you.

Women's Surf Camp  - Triple Room - November 2025

Our instructor was great. We had an awesome time, so much so we booked a second surf lesson. 

Beginner Surf Lesson

My 2 sons 12, 8,  and I took a lesson with Gonzalo.  He was awesome and a great instructor. Had all 3 of us surfing in no time at all.   We will 100% be coming back  in the future for intermediate lesson and continue surfing any chance we get. 

I had a wonderful surf lesson and experience surfing at Dominicalito beach with Gunzo and Diego. Both instructors were excellent in explaining surf techniques in and out of the water. Loved to surf with you guys again! 

The guys were friendly and super aware of any angst we might have had regarding the water. Very patient and uber cognizant of our particular limitations. All and all - four thumbs up 👍👍👍👍


Where to start with this amazing experience. I attended The Dominical Surf School Women’s Surf Camp in Costa Rica. This is one of the best experiences I have ever had. The owner, Debbie, grew up in Dominical. She is truly such a special person; her energy is contagious. She went above and beyond to make our experience unforgettable and boy was it. All of the instructors involved in the camp were exceptional; very knowledgeable, patient, kind, and fun! This was my first surf camp and by day 4 I was riding green waves, paddling myself, and turning left/right. I couldn’t believe it. We had two video analyses and professional photography. Beyond the surf camp, Debbie is incredibly knowledgeable about the local area; dining, experiences, activities, etc. She is the ultimate tour guide. A yoga class and massage were both included in the cost of our trip and were great additions to the camp. We also went to two waterfalls which were beautiful. Debbie took us to a special dinner at a local restaurant that was 5 stars excellent. We also chose to do an add on cooking experience (farm to table) which was hands down one of the best food experiences I have ever done (highly recommend). The included accommodations were fantastic. I cannot wait to come back and join the camp again. The memories I made on this trip were unforgettable. This trip was so magical and really replenished my soul. Thank you to Dominical Surf School for making my surfing dreams come true! 

Women's Surf Camp Balance - Private Room - Feb 22nd

Best camp ever!! Debbie is an AMAZING surf instructor with unbeatable local knowledge. All the details are taken care of from the moment I got off the plane! Highly recommend!

Women's Surf Camp Balance - Private Room - Mary Foley

My experience at Dominical Surf School was incredible, thanks to Debbie and her amazing team.  Their passion for surfing and commitment to helping students succeed is evident in everything they do. I'm already looking forward to my next visit (and bringing some friends!) to continue learning and enjoy the stunning location.

Our instructor was a good teacher, and  did everything he could to guarantee our success. We had a great time! Surfing requires a lot of physical exertion! We definitely got a workout. Thank you for a great day!


It was really great. Outstanding hospitality which made me feel very welcome. What’s the most important, I progressed a lot in surfing.

Women's Surf Camp Balance - Private Room

I couldn’t recommend this school more!! I had the BEST beginner lesson and it was so fun I immediately signed up for another lesson the next day. Even though they were busy, they were bale to squeeze me in and the whole team and environment was extremely supportive and kind. As a 40 year old beginner, I was a little nervous but everyone made me feel welcome and confident. 10/10

We had a great time! Fantastic instructors. Learned lots and caught some great waves.

Intermediate Surf Lesson

Amazing and supportive instructors!!! Can’t wait to be back!

My partner and I took beginner surf lessons with the Dominical Surf School and highly recommend it! Rodri was our instructor and he was the so sweet and encouraging. I had never surfed before so I was a bit nervous, and he built up my confidence and gave me great tips during the lesson- you will be in very good hands if you surf with Dominical Surf School. 

We had the absolute best time on our trip! Debbie and her wonderful team of instructors are just amazing! From great communication to being picked up at the airport and surf lessons in epic conditions, it was an epic trip! We will be back!!

Personalised Package

The best surf instructors!  They went above and beyond for our group.  I can't recommend them enough.  Thanks for a great time!!

Group Lessons

We signed up our son for a 2 hour private lesson. Our instructor was great, and really gave him great tips to continue to grow as a surfer. We highly recommend!

We had a wonderful time surfing with this group. 9 people ranging from never surfed to having surfed a few years and intermediate level.
Everyone in the group had fun, learned and got better. New surfers got to catch waves themselves for the first time, and others got to carve some nice turns on beautiful waves.
We did 3 sessions (M, W, F mornings). All were great.  Thanks so much for the great time in Dominical and Dominicalito waves!

Our kids had a great time. Lessons were very professional and everything was well explained. Communication was also good and replies can very quick.

Thanks a lot and best Regards,

This was wonderful! I learned so much and my instructor was so personable. I definitely recommend this experience!

We had an amazing time with this surf school! Everything we hoped for. Everyone was able to get up on the board. We did 3 days of 2 hour lessons with a group that varied in size from 7-13, ages 6-40+ - they allowed some of us to borrow rash guards if needed and gave us some great natural sunscreen for our faces. Debbie was wonderful to work with- easy to contact, very sweet and very organized, and willing to be flexible when we had kids who kept changing their minds. The instructors were great and encouraging - all of our kids loved who they were paired with. Unfortunately I don’t remember all of their names but my friend and I had Santi and he was great! Everyone says this was the highlight of the trip. I loved that they always seemed more concerned about safety than anything else. I was able to learn without being worried for the safety of my kids because the instructors were very focused on them 100% of the time. Martina took photos for us on the first day but it rained non stop, I thought there was no way she would be able to capture any good photos but she did! They set up a big tent for us for shade and a break from the rain with some chairs as well. You’ll leave feeling like they’re all friends. Book with them- you won’t be disappointed! 

The instructors were so nice and good at their job. We all fell in love with surfing and we had 13-52 year olds on our trip. 

They were amazing!  When we got into town, we made a stop by their office to see if they felt we could get up on the boards and have fun.  Of course they said yes, but they meant it--and we did it.  I'm in my early 50s, husband weighs 220 and our son is in the prime of his life.  We all three got up on the board several times and surfed some waves--it's so much fun!   The next day, they rented us a board for the whole day, and we took it to Playa Linda.  Great company and many thanks to Mario, Gonzalo, the second instructor whose name I've forgotten (sorry) and the cute girl from Jersey!

These guys are the best! Our teacher Jose was super knowledgeable, patient and an all around great guy. He had us standing up and riding waves in no time. If you’re looking to take surf lessons in Dominical go see the guys, they’ll take great care of you. 

Instructors were amazing and gave really practical steps & coaching to get up on the board.  I have never surfed before and I was able to get surfing in less than 1 hour!

Such a fun experience, I genuinely didn’t want to get out of the water!! The staff was so warm and welcoming, and we had the pleasure of having Jose as our instructor & Martina as our photographer! Would highly recommend this for beginners, I’ll be back :)

Dominical Surf School was an excellent choice to get advance lessons for my two children who are just beginning to compete in Surf Competitions.  Spencer and Atrea gave instruction in the surf while taping the session.  In between "heats" the video was reviewed and the kids were given pointers to work on in the next "heat".  Lots of lessons learned.   Great experience.

Advance Coaching / Guiding

Great surf lesson by Roberto- I saw noticeable improvement from my last lesson in September 

There are many great things about Dominical surf school but the best is the people. Not only Debbie but her whole team is lovely to interact with. My instructor Jose is an impressive surfer and a genuinely sweet person. Looking forward to surfing with these folks again when I’m back. 

Had a blast. Martina was a super coach. Flexible team. Great communication. Would absolutely book with again!

I had a wonderful time with Martina during my first surfing lesson ever.
She is a great teacher who can get a beginner standing on the board in no time. It'll feel safe and purely enjoyable at all times.
Thank you, Martina, for the unique experience and for sharing your passion with me!

My family did one lesson together and it was great.  The instructors were super friendly and accommodating to al skill levels.

It was a great time, the attention from instructors was on point. Riding baby waves the first day! Perfect. 

We had a great time, thanks to the nice team, very professional.
Don’t hesitate to surf with them 

Great experience with knowledgeable and patient instructors. Brought our daughter back the next day for a lesson and she had a great time.

Five stars! We had a private lesson for our family of 4 with our kids who are in their 20’s. Santi and Sabine were endlessly patient and SUCH great teachers. The manager at the office was extremely organized and professional. I would highly recommend Dominical Surf school to anyone of any age. The waves were the perfect size for beginners and their equipment was ideal. Long boards rule! Pura Vida! Look up and go learn to surf at Dominical Surf School.

We had such a great experience! All the beginners in our group all raved at how awesome the instructors were.  So encouraging and patient while giving great direction. The intermediate class was also awesome in that we got lots of tips and feedback to work on when we get in the water back at home. The instructors were so friendly, genuine and professional! We will definitely be back.

Great class, lots of helpful tips and little corrections to help us improve. We'll definitely be back.

We took a beginner lesson and had a really great time. The instructors gave a great lesson that was easy to follow. Instructors are patient and encouraging out in the water. We each received feedback when practicing. I would definitely recommend this experience and come back again!
