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!

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!
