Central America August

Postby benli » Tue May 14, 2019 7:57 pm

Hi i'm looking for the best spot to learn/getting better at surfing. I've surfed before but i would really like to improve by surfing for a month twice a day. I was looking for some surf camps in Nicaragua and el savador but i dont want to pay for something that could be overpriced. Any suggestion ?

Cheers,

Benj

Costa Rica is where I used to go. Playa Hermosa Jaco is where I'd start ten head to Playa Carmen in the mal pais area.

If you go to Playa Hermosa, stay at the Cabinas Vista Hermosa. I've known the owners since last century. The son now runs it and he knows all the secret spots if any are left. Sweet break out front. Nicaragua had a bad vibe when I went, but that's because of our interference with their politics.

I really recommend it, because I was there a year ago, I loved it.
It was either free or for a small fee, but you have to be careful because it's quite a dangerous place.

It was always dangerous. I hitchhiked the first time. And in 01 when I attempted to live there.
