Overview

Surf lessons take place in Playa Grande, Costa Rica, with professional instructors from Frijoles Locos. There are three lesson options available, each lasting about 90 minutes. Group lessons require at least four participants and are designed for first-time surfers aged 12 and older. Each student receives instruction using a beginner surfboard and a rashguard provided for sun and rash protection. Semi-private lessons accommodate two to three people and are suitable for families with children under 12, couples, or small groups seeking more focused coaching. Private lessons offer one-on-one instruction and are recommended for intermediate surfers or those wanting personalized guidance. Private lessons include hotel pickup and drop-off within Playa Grande and Palm Beach Estates, while group and semi-private lessons do not unless arranged separately. Lesson times depend on tide conditions, so scheduling is flexible. Snacks, drinks, gratuities, and souvenir photos are not included but can be purchased at the surf shop. Lessons are subject to weather conditions, with options for rescheduling or refunds if canceled due to storms. Children under 12 cannot join group lessons for safety reasons, but the minimum age for all lessons is 3 years. Equipment is selected based on participants’ height and weight to ensure proper fit.
