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.
All lessons are 2h long and start with beach drills designed to introduce you to the 101’s of surfing. Also a brief conversation with your instructor for us to discover a little bit more about your possible experience and training needs.
In addition to the most important surfing basics, the drills also emphasize water and surfing safety and security.
2 hours lesson one on one instructor student ratio, rash guard & surfboard rental included.
Our location is 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 in any case the hotel has a private parking (based on hotels availability)- google map link.
Come ready to surf. We will lend you a rash guard for the lesson if you need one.
Note: there are no dressing rooms. We have a small storage area to store your belongings but please bring as little as possible - you don’t need much (sunblock, towel, water)!
In the central Pacific of Costa Rica we can only surf around the high tides of the day, so lessons schedules change from day to day and they are based on student experience, so please share as many details about your surfing experience as possible with us.
You will receive a final confirmation from us to your email with final details about your lessons schedule.
