There are excellent surfing spots up and down the coasts on both the Caribbean and Pacific sides of Costa Rica.  Each have their own characteristic breaks.

For example, here are a few on the Caribbean side near our base:

Puerto Viejo: (also called "Salsa" for its juice power)

Thick and voluminous wave that comes from deep water onto a shallow reef - big, tubular waves.   Restaurants and accommodations are plentiful.

Black Beach, Cahuita:

An excellent beach break, just north of Puerto Viejo.  Not well known and therefore not heavily visited.  Waves all year round.   Usually ideal conditions for beginners.

Manzanillo:

A very fast beach break.   Located 20 km south of Puerto Viejo, close to an unpaved road and easy to get to.   Rustic lodging and typical food nearby.

Get in touch with us and we'll point you to some great surfing on both coasts.
