Costa Rica Surf School - Best Places To Learn Surfing In Costa Rica

Costa Rica is a small country located along the tropical belt in Central America. The climate remains tropical throughout the year, ensuring excellent conditions for surfing. Spanish is the most spoken language in the country, and if you wish to acquaint yourself with the language before you take surfing lessons, you may want to learn Spanish. Spanish school in Peru or in Chile in the neighboring South America offer excellent language courses for foreigners.

Costa Rica is bordered by the Atlantic Ocean in the east and Pacific Ocean in the west, thus hosting a number of world renowned beaches. The weather is such that it provides almost perfect surfing conditions throughout the year. However, this is true for the Pacific side and not the Caribbean side.

The Caribbean

The conditions for surfing in the east coast do not last throughout the year as the waves are mainly the result of tropical storms. Therefore, it is not recommended for an amateur to attempt surfing on this side. For new surfers, the Pacific Coast side is more of an option.

Pacific Coast

The west side of the coast can be further divided into three distinct regions, the North, Central and South.

North Pacific Coast

This is the most popular region for surfing in Costa Rica and has some excellent places for surfing.

Places such as Playa Naranjo have very strong winds, especially between December and March. This is an excellent place to stay and learn surfing due to its location. You can also camp here but a 4 wheel drive is a necessity here.

Tamarindo is a town with startling beauty which offers excellent surfing conditions for both amateurs and seasoned surfers alike. The best conditions are found between December and April. Tamarindo also offers Spanish classes so if you were interested in learning Spanish too, you will have the best of both at your disposal.

Central Pacific Coast

Hermosa Beach in the Central Pacific region keeps its waters in a steady swell. The beach stretches for several miles so you can easily find a spot where it is not too crowded. The good thing is, this beach is easily accessible from San Jose.

South Pacific Coast
