Tamarindo Surf Camp is a division of Tamarindo Surf School, the first of its kind founded in Costa Rica. The unique teaching method is based on experience and knowledge acquired over years of study and surfing.

All of our surf instructors are ticos (local Costa Ricans). This means your surf lesson will not only be conducted by an experienced surf instructor who knows the local breaks, but one who will give you some exposure to the Costa Rican culture.

“Surfing is my life. The rest is details. The waves travel from far for you to surf. Surf and don't worry about being the best. A good surfer is not the one who knows how to ride the waves the best, but is the one who knows how to enjoy it and have the most fun……….Let's surf!”
