From the golden beaches of the Nicoya Peninusula to the crystal blue waters of the Caribbean Sea, this two-week adventure will provide an exciting new skill for beginners and is sure to thrill experienced surfers.
 Surf the Famous Nicoya Peninusula
From San Jose, we're off to the Golfo de Nicoya and Nicoya Peninsula where we will settle into our private campground on the beaches of the Pacific Ocean. With a backdrop of lush green vegetation, this remote area of Costa Rica provides an ideal setting for our introduction to Costa Rican waves and classic breaks. Over the next five days, we'll learn proper paddling and stance techniques under the guidance of professional instructors who will be able to impart new skills for novice surfers and hone the proficiency of the more advanced riders in the group. Explore Arenal Volcano National Park
Moving from the Pacific side of Costa Rica to the Caribbean side, we will have the opportunity to explore one of the most renowned volcanoes in the world. The Arenal Volcano National Park is spectacularly active and provides observers with an amazing display of beauty and power. During the day we'll hike in the shadows of it's perfectly shaped cone and ride a zip-line through forest canopies. In the evening, we will watch as the glow of red-hot lava flows from this giant's core. Soak in the Tabacon Hot Springs
After five days of surfing, we'll be looking forward to relaxing and soaking in the naturally-heated geothermal mineral pools of Tabacon. The temperatures of these tropical springs are perfect for soothing tired muscles, and the views of the Arenal Volcano from Tabacon are second to none. Whitewater Raft the Pacuare River
Continuing west towards the Caribbean Sea, we'll shoot the rapids of the Pacuare River for two days. World famous for its sheer beauty, the Pacuare River requires teamwork and in return offers challenge and excitement. Our talented local Costa Rican guides will provide instruction and assist in navigating us through class III and IV rapids. We'll marvel at the steep walls of this tropical rainforest gorge, witness spectacular waterfalls as they cascade into the canyon, and observe sloths, toucans, parrots, butterflies and colorful frogs in their natural habitat. Surf and Snorkel the Caribbean CoastCoral reefs, crystal blue waters, white sandy beaches and amazingly clean surf breaks are the trademarks of the Caribbean side of Costa Rica. Our private beachside camp will act as a base over the next four days as we sample some of the best surfing in the country. Our professional, personally-tailored surfing instruction continues as we improve our skills and increase our confidence. In between surfing sessions, we'll have the opportunity to explore the wildlife of the coral reefs and snorkel among dolphins, sea turtles and manatee.
