how much of a beginner? Cos if you really wanted to improve, you'd be better sticking around your home break and learning there Id have thought

I agree 100% that if your a beginner, the last thing you wood want to do is surf any of the spots you mentioned.

Agreed its much better to know your local spot

[WooD]

I'm not sure what kind of break you might have, but theres nothing better than a nice sandy bottom to learn on.

CR,
Numerous beginner breaks and tons of surf schools.

If you dont mind staying within civilization then head to tamarindo for a couple days and link up with a surf school.

I have heard nothing but good things from the schools in CR around Tamarindo.

Mexico's pacific coast also offers a few schhols where numerous mello beach breaks are. Try the Costa Azul on the pacific coast. Its a little pricey for my taste but they offer really good packages for the individual and family.

Wherever you go your gonna enjoy it.

I know a few people that leardned to surf in CR then came back to Texas completely hooked. Even if it is your first time dont fret just get some proper instructions
