Let´s Go!
Lessons
It’s never too late to learn how to surf! Experience the best way to enjoy the 79 degree fahrenheit Costa Rican waters at the hands of Damo Surf Camp.
Our first surf lesson will consist of 30 minutes on surfing theory and water safety. Here, we’ll touch on topics such as conditions, tides, different kinds of waves and how to read them; i.e. wind, swell and signals. On the beach, we’ll go through a few drills to make sure you have a solid base and technique. Then it’s time to hit the water!
Once we are in the ocean, every student will have personalized attention from our instructors to guide you through the process and help you catch your first waves! A unique and completely memorable experience. By the end of the lesson our goal is to have you be as independent as possible; knowing which waves to catch and how to stand up completely alone.
In your second lesson, we will keep teaching you how to read the conditions, how to get in and out of the water, ocean awareness, and how to maneuver your surfboard. Once you’re standing up, riding a wave is all about turning the board. Turning starts with your eyes. Wherever you direct your eyes, your body, and eventually your board, will follow. This is one of the most important aspects of the sport. And once you have it down, you’ll want to surf the best waves possible.
Your third lesson consists of learning surf etiquette. It’s very important to be respected and give respect in the water to those who are also having fun like us! So, we’ll give you the necessary knowledge to be able to paddle out, honor the priority system, catch an unbroken wave and then ride down the line!
All of our lessons last a total of 2 hours. And all of our experienced surf instructors will go above and beyond to make sure you stand up, surf and enjoy this ocean as much as possible.
Each lesson has a cost of $69 and all equipment is included.
