If we tell you it won't be uncrowded for long! Seriously what level surfer are you, size of waves and what you can handle are a factor! East coast or west coast? And more specific thoughts! :lol:

Costa Rica (from what I've heard of) if you want good waves but don't mind good crowds.
I surfed Nicaragua and had a blast and enjoyed small to no crowds. So, depends what you are looking for.

Cabo was also a blast, if you get a good swell it can be good, uncrowded and warm

COSTA RICA all the way, since it has a lot of beaches, crowd isn't to serious than other places. Nicaragua is perfect swell too. You will have a great time on these places.
