A great way to discover Costa Rica and its water is through a professional surf lesson by the hand of one of our ISA & Lifeguard certified instructors.

Tortuga Surf camp instructors all have an incredible amount of ocean knowledge and deep love and respect for what they do.

Join us for a comprehensive series of four lessons, each lasting 2 hours, designed to take you from beginner to confident surfer. Each session begins with beach drills to introduce you to the fundamentals of surfing, followed by a brief conversation with your instructor to tailor the experience based on your prior experience and training needs.

Throughout these four lessons, you'll progressively build upon essential surfing skills while also emphasizing water and surfing safety and security. By the end of the course, you can expect to feel a significant improvement in your technique, balance, and overall surfing ability. 

Your package includes four 2-hour lessons with a dedicated one-on-one instructor-student ratio. As part of this journey, you'll receive a rash guard and surfboard rental for each lesson.

We’re located at Selina Hotel Jaco Beach, on Alice Street (off Pastor Diaz Ave). Follow Alice Street and you will find the hotel on the left side. You can park on the street or utilize the hotel’s private parking, subject to availability.

Come ready to surf! We will provide a rash guard for your lessons if needed. 

Note: We do have a small storage area for your belongings, but please bring as little as possible; you only need sunblock, a towel, and water!
