Two hours of surf lessons with professional instructors, folded into a full day of swimming, snorkeling, and Guanacaste's best-known beaches.
About two hours: that's the surf lesson, run by professional instructors at one of Costa Rica's best-known surf spots. It's built for beginners, no experience required, and a bilingual instructor works with you until you get your shot at standing up on your first wave.
The rest of the day belongs to the coast. Certified guides lead the trip along Guanacaste's shoreline, with time to swim in clear water, snorkel, and stretch out on golden sand.
Lunch is traditional Costa Rican food at a restaurant right on the beach.

Around twelve years in Costa Rican tourism. On the drive between Guanacaste and Arenal he points out how fast the landscape and climate change, and shares the history of both regions along the way. His picks: the Palo Verde boat safari and Rincón de la Vieja's Pailas trail.
Twenty years guiding Costa Rica as a general and naturalist guide, with a special passion for botany: he points out plant adaptations, ecological relationships and the quiet work that trees, flowers and lianas do in the ecosystem. His favorite day is Palo Verde, where wildlife, tropical wetlands, cultural traditions and history meet — and the birdlife is spectacular.
Twenty-two years in tourism, from restaurants to tour sales to driving and guiding. Místico is his favorite trail: rich in wildlife, easy to walk, and full of the forest's secrets. On transfers north he loves the moment the dry Pacific crosses an invisible line into rainforest green.
