Absolutely fantastic. From the day we arrived until the day we left everything was excellent. Great food, rooms, grounds, staff, equipment,... The level of service Kandice provided is top notch. I highly recommend others to experience everything Vista Guapa has to offer. You’ll be glad you did.
Our surf lessons, and all around surf experience, could not be rated anything less than 5-stars. David’s knowledge of the ocean and surfing resulted in awesome advances in our surf skills and we had a lot of fun making that happen. David is naturally patient and has a fun laidback style, which created a safe learning environment for my 15 year old and I.
13 people for 10days at the greatest surf camp in Costa Rica!!! From the minute we landed until the minute we left every moment was catered and guided by professionals who took care of every detail. Vista Guapa surf guides and staff go above and beyond so everyone has the greatest possible experience. If you are thinking about learning to surf and/or do some stand up paddling then THIS IS THE PLACE!!!! The YOLO Board Company supplies the icing on the cake with an array of epic boards. Don't miss out on this live changing place. You Only Live Once. Make it count!!! #yoloexperience2016

Jaco Beach
Level: All Levels
Jaco is a beach break holding fun left and right waves between waist to head high or 1 foot overhead. It is surfable starting at mid tide and up, embracing constant wave conditions all year to round. Great waves for beginners as they are easier and slower than other breaks.
Hermosa Beach
Level: Intermediate
Hermosa is considered one of the most consistent beach breaks in the world! It features stronger and more powerful waves; the majority of time over head high. Depending on conditions the waves can be hallow and great for barrels.
This beach break is suitable for intermediate and advanced surfers.
Secret spots...
Level: All Levels
There are a few secret spots where we can take our students which are a few left point breaks surfable at low tide. They provide a ride of approximately 200m to 250m of shoulder high waves to 1ft over head. These breaks are triggered by south swells and suit beginner/intermediate surfers as well as advanced experienced surfers when weather conditions bring big swells.
The bigger swell season in the Central Pacific area is from May to November with waves consistently from 2-6 feet, sometimes bigger. Costa Rica's summer months & dry season is from December to April. Waves tend to be really fun clean 3-4 foot.
Surfing Jaco
The main beach in this surf town is a long 3 km beach break good for beginners and intermediates with many different peaks. If the swell gets above head high it tends to close out. South of the bay is Roca Loca, a right reef break that can hold up 10 feet at times.
Further south is Hermosa beach. It has a really good vibe to hang out, meet people and get in the water every day. It is a 7km long dark sandy beach breaks that works best on high tide. If you want to escape the crowd head further south. The beach packs a punch and when it's bigger it will rip those board shorts right off you and challenge even the best surfer.
Further along the coast you will find Esterillos about 10k south of Hermosa. Another fun beach break that is a swell magnet and if your looking for an uncrowded wave, take a walk down the beach and pick a peak.
Still heading south you will find other spots include Seco, Bejuco and Playa Espadilla, a great beginners surf beach in the popular surf town of Manuel Antonio.
Surfing Dominical
Less crowded than other surf towns in Costa Rica. Dominical is a much longer trek from San José so it does not tend to get the same amount of surfers that Jaco has. Dominical is a wave magnet and has been called the most consistent surf spot in Costa Rica. The towns main break, Playa Dominical works best on Mid to high tide as at low tide it can be just a shore dump. It tends to be a better spot for Advanced, intermediates as it can get powerful.
2km south is Dominicalito, a beachbreak that is great for beginners. Further on 1 km is The point, with rides of up to 250 meters! There are many more breaks to be discovered, and teh further on south you go the emptier the breaks.
