Tamarindo Surf School
This is our most popular single day lesson. We take the frustration out of your first surf lesson by introducing surfing in a fun, energetic, and friendly atmosphere.
Learn to Surf
Our surf instructors always have plenty of time to give you individual attention; they will give personalized coaching and feedback. We are able to focus on yours skills. You will understand what you need to look for when you start a surf session and how to stay safe here or in any other location in the world. We make sure you feel comfortable with the basics.
Awesome you’ve had your first lesson! You had fun and caught your first few waves. Do you want more? So, now it’s time to improve your wave selection (we take you to spots that help you develop further).
We will practice the “turtle” and our surf instructors will stay with you every step of the way until you are comfortable and confident paddling out. Work on your paddling technique and controlling your speed on the wave by repositioning yourself relative to the surfboard and laying down your first turns, for that reason we make sure you use a surfboard that matches your skills and ambition.
Who we want to be?
WE ARE COMMITTED TO THE PROGRESS OF OUR STUDENTS.

Surf Training
Surfing is a very technical and demanding sport at any level, so it is important to prepare your body if you want to get the most out of your sessions. Surf Training is a type of functional training focused on improving a series of skills that are essential when surfing: strength, balance, flexibility, mobility and explosiveness. With this, you will be able to boost your surfing to the next level while improving your physical form.

I had such a fun time learning to surf with Camilo as my instructor. I went in thinking I'd only have 1 or 2 lessons, and ending up having 4! It was such an amazing experience, and I'll remember it forever. I would highly recommend anyone to learn how to surf here 🙌🏻🤙🏻

Perfect spot for relaxation in front of the beach. This place is THE place to learn how to surf. I had the time of my life on those waves and the instructors are super cool people. I can't wait to go back!!! very private you can hear the sound of the ocean from your room! OHANA SURF ACADEMY is best experience in town and received excellent service at all times.
