There's A Reason We Set up Here.

Sand all the way down. No rocks, no reef, and the water sits around 80 degrees. That's the wave beginners learn on, and it's right out your front door.


A lot of camps drive you to the beach every morning. Here you just walk out, so nobody's on a schedule and you can go back out in the afternoon.

Beginner

Never Surfed Or Just Starting Out? Perfect. 

Three surfers to a coach, and the coach is in the water with you the whole time. Every coach is ISA certified and lifeguard certified. Most people stand up the first morning. But if you don't, no stress.



If you're further along than you thought, your coach moves you up. It doesn't cost anything.

What's Included

  • The wave out front. It's why the camp is here. 
  • Three surfers to a coach. We don’t stretch that number, for any reason. 
  • Video of you every day. A coach sits down and goes through it with you.
  • Friday graduation. Awards at Eat at Joe's and clips of everyone's week on the screen.

Price

From $1,803 per person for the week, based on two sharing. 

Room, coaching, breakfast, boards and the Saturday airport ride, all included.


Already have a room in town? The surf program on its own is $200 a day.

INTERMEDIATE

You Surf. You Just Want to Be Better At It. 

Coaching every morning. Some mornings it's out front. Others you're in the van or the boat, heading somewhere you'd never have found on your own.



Not sure this is you? Start here. Your coach will move you either way. Or contact us. 

What's Included

  • The other breaks. Avellanas, Playa Grande and Marbella.
  • Five surfers to a coach. We hold to that number all season. 
  • Everyone in the water with you is at your level. We sort by ability and by age, so you won’t be the only adult in a group of teenagers.
  • Small swell isn't a wasted week. If it's not working out front, your coach loads the van and finds somewhere it is.
  • Video analysis. Go over your paddle, your pop up and your ride with your coach.

"I've been able to see real progression both years... The camp itself is very fun, and it's easy to meet other people there, if that's your thing."

Your Coaches

If you read the reviews you'll notice people don't thank the program. They thank the people that run it. That's who you're actually booking. Every coach here is ISA + lifeguard certified. Most of them grew up surfing this beach.

HERE’S WHAT’S INCLUDED WITH EVERY PROGRAM.

What's In A Surf Week.

Coaching every morning for beginners and intermediates. Guided tours for advanced.


Video of you surfing, at least three times across a full week and daily for beginners.


Video review with your coach if you want it.


Over 300 boards, and you can swap as many times as you want. 


Workshops on how waves work, how to read a lineup, board design and ocean safety.


Session times move with the tide. Your coach sets the time a day ahead.

Everything in this section is open to anyone on the reservation, whether they surf or not. 


Breakfast cooked to order at Eat at Joe's. Not a buffet line.


Yoga Monday, Wednesday and Friday.


Beach tours a couple of afternoons a week. These aren't surf trips. No waves, just somewhere good to spend an afternoon.


Friday graduation.


Free van from Liberia airport on Saturdays.


Pool, beach chairs, showers, lockers, wifi.

Everything above comes with the week. Tax is in the price and nothing gets added at checkout.

What It Costs

A week here starts at $1,803 per person when two of you share a Tiki Room, our most basic, or $2,205 on your own. That covers seven nights, coaching, breakfast, boards and the Saturday airport ride.


Already have somewhere to stay in town? You can book the surf program on its own for $200 a day. No room, no breakfast.



Coming any day but Saturday? The airport van is $150 each way, whatever the size of your group.
