Pura Vida Adventures Costa Rica Surf Camps    Costa Rica Surf Camps for Women
Pura Vida Adventures is all about giving you the opportunity to either learn to surf or to improve their surfing skills in a fun, non-competitive environment. But surfing is only part of the adventure. It's also about  blending the beauty of the ocean with the rich experience of visiting a new country. When you leave a Pura Vida Adventure, you'll remember the warm water, the pristine beaches, the tropical beauty, and the breathtaking sunsets. 
You'll also remember what travel is all about --appreciating local culture, making new friends, and coming home rejuvenated. Pura Vida Adventures is about giving you a new experience, and perhaps a new outlook on life.

Our surf camps are situated in the scenic village of Malpais on the Pacific Coast of Costa Rica. Expansive beaches and a tropical rain forest surround Malpais, creating fascinating landscapes and stunning views. This region is also a haven for all levels of surfers. The main beaches, Playa Carmen and Santa Teresa, provide easy, fun waves in which to learn while the surrounding area has it all... point, reef and beach breaks.  
 
Malpais, Costa Rica                                                                                
 
Malpais, Costa Rica
Malpais is an international surf destination. Our campers tend to meet the locals and other surfers. The town itself is more like a little village and doesn't have an array of shops. It is more spread out with restaurants and hotels and is about 6 miles long. There are hiking trails in the area along with other activities that are not included in the tour: horseback riding, sailing, fishing, canopy touring, scuba diving, golfing, and biking.
 
Accommodations           
Costa Rica Surf Camps for Women  
  Your surf adventure starts when you
  arrive at The Place, one of the most
  stylish hotels in the area. After an
  incredible surf session, you can enjoy a
  swim in our large refreshing pool, sip a
  drink in the tropical bar, chill-out in the
  outdoor lounge, or simply siesta in a
  hammock. 
 
  
  Our location, only a few-minute walk
from the village, allows you the opportunity to explore both daytime and
nighttime activities and is within walking to the beach.

Surf Instruction
Costa Rica Surf Camps for WomenOur daily surf lessons are approximately two hours in time and include all the equipment you'll need. For beginners, we will teach you proper surfing etiquette, water safety, wave riding skills, and paddling techniques. For the more advanced surfers, our instructors will fine-tune your skills, work with you to extend your ability, and be your guide to the different surf spots in the area. Depending on the swell conditions and your level of experience, our expert instructors will work with you to decide which break best fits your ability.
 
Our surf instructors are Pura Vida certified instructors. Each instructor is trained on our PVA methodology on how to make beginners  "surfers" and to achieve the more advanced surfer's goals. We have taught a wide range of surfers; ones who have never surfed before to surfers who have surfed almost everyday for 15 years. Our instructors are familiar with all the breaks in the area. They are certified in CPR and Life Saving. For bios on our surf instructors  visit our website at www.PuraVidaAdventures.com and go to the "About Us" section.
 
Guest Review: "The week I spent at Pura Vida Adventures would certainly be on my top 10 list of most terrific, fun, fabulous, and best things I've ever done in my life." Elizabeth Levy ~ New York, NY
