3. Protect Wildlife and the Future:
The profits from our retreats goes to the Wildlife Protection Alliance, our non-profit organization.
Located in Playa Grande, Guanacaste, Costa Rica
Nestled along the Pacific coast of Costa Rica, and a short distance from Tamarindo, Playa Grande is a hidden gem that offers an unforgettable experience for surfers and wildlife enthusiasts alike.
This vibrant coastal town is renowned for its pristine beaches, and consistent surf breaks, it attracts surfers from all skill levels. Whether you are a beginner looking to catch your first wave or an experienced rider seeking a challenge, Playa Grande has it all.
Beyond its waves, Playa Grande is also home to incredible wildlife. Situated adjacent to Las Baulas National Marine Park, it offers the unique opportunity to witness the nesting ritual of leatherback turtles. From October to March they come ashore to lay their eggs.
Our center is located an hour and a half from Daniel Oduber Quirós International (LIR) Airport.
