About this trip

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.


About the lessons

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)!

Available Packages

Private surf lesson

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.

This was so much fun & a unique/private tour. My husband, I and 9 year old went on this SUP tour. Mike and the pooches were great. Mike gave us clear instructions and was kind and helpful if he noticed we needed guidance. We paddled to a quiet and remote part of the island where we saw pufferfish and mantarays in the bay. This was a sunrise tour so the way back was absolutely beautiful. The water was clear and the natural beauty was amazing. (P.s. my daughters favorite part was Ambar and Osa.) Mike is very friendly and knowledgeable- if we return to CR....maybe we can try surf lessons with him!

Tortuga surf camp was perfect! I’ve taken beginner lessons before, but this was by far the best. My friend and I had one instructor and he was knowledgeable, kind, and attentive. We both caught multiple waves and it was her very first time. Also, there weren’t many other people in the water, which was nice

After a really positive experience on a previous visit, I booked in again with Tortuga Surf Camp for my son and I to have a one-to-one lesson. We met with Laity, Ivo and Flor. They were super positive, attentive, friendly and supportive throughout our session. We thoroughly enjoyed the session and want to return in the future.
