Next in line is the Ocean Spa Park. Now this one sets itself apart from the rest of Costa Rica’s surfing havens. Aside from the customary wave-riding, this site infuses a number of healthy activities that would tune your mind to its optimum performance! They have everything the others don’t have like yoga, Pilates, massage and spa.

Hotel Gran de Oro in San Jose will be your first layover. It’s a Victorian-inspired mansion that exudes the charm and character of a prime hotel. In the afternoon, you can amble to the coast via your rented Tucson. Expect a combination of small mountain roads and jungle, dotted with villages and towns, on the way to Hotel Flor Blanca. There, you can kip for a short while before nabbing a board rental and surf until the waters run dry! ($3787 USD for 2 people, 8 days/7 nights, breakfast included. Contact No: (506) 280-7328 / San Diego, California line – (619) 955-7171)

To wow you next is an eco-luxury surf experience offered by a beach paradise found north of Manuel Antonio. This spot has four different surfing destinations namely Jaco, Hermosa, Dominical and the less-known Playa Palo Seco. The latter is bordered by a mangrove estuary and an incredible eco-luxurious hotel called The Timarai Bamboo Resort.

Just strap into your rental car and fast forward to Jaco beach. You can stay at the Backyard Hotel, which is right in the middle of Playa Hermosa beach. This is a pure, ecologically-friendly resort, famous for bamboo stems that are used as the main wall structure of the hotel. You truly wouldn’t wish to be some place else once you’re here. Aside from the amenities, the surf sites are just close to the hotel so you can easily feed your hungry longing for the waves! ($1450 USD per person, 8 days/7 nights Contact No: (506) 280-7328)
