You should fly into Daniel Oduber Quirós International Airport (LIR) in Liberia, Costa Rica — it’s the closest airport, about one hour from our surf camp in Tamarindo.
Yes, we offer complimentary airport transportation on Saturdays in our private shuttles with our own drivers. For arrivals on other days, we can arrange transportation for an additional fee.
If you’re flying into San José International Airport (SJO), Tamarindo is a 4–5 hour drive. You can book a domestic flight, arrange a private shuttle, or rent a car for a scenic drive to the coast.
Share your flight details with us, and we’ll make sure your arrival is smooth and stress-free.
Every day at Witch’s Rock Surf Camp is built around the best waves and tides, ensuring you get the ultimate surf experience.
Surf lessons are scheduled around high tide, which means they might take place in the morning, midday, or afternoon, depending on the conditions. Our guided surf tours, however, can run at any tide and may be half-day or full-day trips by van or boat to explore Costa Rica’s best waves, including Witch’s Rock and Ollie’s Point.
When you’re not surfing, you can relax by the pool, explore Tamarindo, or take an adventure tour like a volcano hike, canopy tour, or estuary boat trip. During low tide, we offer video analysis and surf seminars to help you refine your technique. Many guests also love getting a beachfront massage to recover after a day of waves.
Evenings are yours to unwind—grab a drink, enjoy live music, connect with new friends, or recharge for another epic day in the water.
Whether you want to surf all day, explore Costa Rica, or simply relax on the beach, every day at Witch’s Rock is designed for you to enjoy the surf lifestyle at your own pace.
No need to bring your own board—we’ve got you covered! Witch’s Rock Surf Camp offers a massive quiver of over 300 surfboards, ranging from performance shortboards to classic longboards, all available for unlimited use during your stay.
We stock top-quality boards from brands like Channel Islands, …Lost, Firewire, Witch’s Rock, Robert August, and more, ensuring you’ll always have the perfect board for the conditions.
That said, if you prefer to bring your own board, you’re welcome to! Plus, guests who bring their own surfboards can store them at the camp indefinitely for free, making future trips even easier.
Some surf camps say they’re “on the beach,” but Witch’s Rock Surf Camp is literally on the sand, with world-class waves breaking right in front of you. This is the apex of Tamarindo Beach — the spot everyone wants to be — and the place where your surf trip becomes unforgettable.
We offer top-quality boards from brands like Channel Islands, …Lost, Firewire, Witch’s Rock, Robert August, and more, so you always have the perfect board for the conditions.
Combine that with expert instructors, local surf guides, beachfront dining, a fun community atmosphere, and over 20 years of experience, and the difference is clear — no one delivers the Witch’s Rock experience.
