Costa Rica Surf Adventures for Women
How is the weather during the surf adventures? And do I need a wetsuit?
There are two seasons in Costa Rica, the "dry" season which is December - April and the "green" season which is May - November. During our "green" season surf camps, it typically rains once a day in the mid-afternoons. Don't let the rain fool you, it is still warm and sunny during this season. For both seasons, the temperature is around 90° F. The water is really warm, so boardshorts, rashguards and bikinis are the surfing attire.
- I have never been surfing. Is this a surf destination for beginners?
Yes. The main break in Malpais is a gentle rolling wave that is perfect for
beginners. We have designed a program to teach you how to surf in a fun,
secure environment.
- I have surfed for a few years, would this be a surf camp for me?
Our surf camp is for all level of surfers. Malpais has three different types
of breaks in the area: point, reef and beach breaks. Depending on your
surfing goals and ability, our instructors will design surf instructions to
fit your needs.
- If I come alone, can I share a room?
Yes, we will match you up with another surf chica. Part of the fun is to
meet new friends with similar interests and to share the "pura vida" of
surfing.
- Can I bring my own board?
Yes you can. I would contact the airline before you leave, because the local
airlines have size restrictions and surcharges will apply. We do supply all
sizes of boards during your adventure.
- What types of exercises should I do before coming on the adventure?
We suggest push-ups, sit-ups, swimming and yoga.
