Costa Rica surf vacation info
Looking at a trip most likely in June to Costa Rica. My wife and I have not ocean surfed, unfortunately we are landlocked here in Kansas (I know it sucks). We wakesurf and wakeboard almost every weekend in the summer. Hopefully we can pick up surfing fairly easily. Anyway, I am looking at Witch's rock surf vacations. They are on the beach in Tamarindo. Any advice and feedback would be appreciated.

I like Dominical, but it's pretty quiet and a little dirtbaggish down there (which I prefer). Think I put a shirt on twice the last week I was there.

I go to CR every December. Been there for 8 years now. Tamarindo is a shit show. My advice, go to Playa Negra. Stay in the Hotel Playa Negra. Nice little bungalows. Restaurant on site, and a 5 minute walk to the town of Playa Negra. Great restaurants. Great people. Three places to surf from the hotel with two in 1 minute walking distance. Sandys and Negra. Sandys is fun in the right swell size and direction. All sand break. Not crowded. Negra is a reef. If it's good lots of local rippers, but gringos get waves. Head 10 minutes north by car to Avellanas. Again, all sand. Long Beach with 6-8 different places to surf. Will get busy 2 hours before high tide to about an hour after high tide. Some locals, but tons of tourists. Easy to jump right into the lineup and get waves. Had two really good days there this year. Lots of lefts and rights. Cool restaurant at the beach too. My two cents.
