Great experience for first timers! - Wonderful experience. Marco and Daniel were extremely helpful. My 9 year old was a natural and my 7 year old did a great job. They were patient and caring! Thank you for a great experience for first timers!

I caught some waves on my first lesson thanks to the great instructors! - A lovely family business who are incredibly accommodating and so so kind. Genuinely seemed stoked for you when you made improvements and caught waves. Super good vibes all round and booking a surf lesson here is a must to make you playa grande visit complete. Can’t wait to go back and take some more. Can’t express just how lovely everyone was and so welcoming and supportive. Super informative and will go above and beyond to answer any questions and queries you have. Thank you all again for making my stay so wonderful!

Surf - We have grown from beginners to intermediate surfers under Marco's attentive coaching. We highly recommend surfing with him and his team regardless of your age, abilities, size, and experience. Our son is 20 years old and we are in our 50's. I wish we could post a video here!

Great communication and experience - Marcos was very helpful & communicative via WhatsApp in setting up board rental, lessons and inquiries about additional items. Jost Matarrita was an excellent surf instructor, he taught me numerous new skills and tips even though I have been a beginner/intermediate surfer for a few years. He was very friendly and spoke english well. Would book with him/them again!

Fantastic Family Surfing Adventure - I can't say enough positive things about our experience with Marcos from You Are Costarica!! Marcos picked us on time from our hotel. Myself and my two boys had a great time and he had both of them up surfing no problem right away! They are 6 and 10. He was very helpful and made it fun while giving great tips. Thanks for a wonderful experience!!

So Much Fun! - We had a blast! Erickson was a great teacher. He was fun, patient and helpful. Playa Grande was a perfect spot for beginners. We surfed 4-6p so we got a bonus sunset surf. So amazingly beautiful. Marcos was great, the whole experience was fun. Surfing is all my kids (ages 15 & 11) want to do the rest of our vacation!! The shop provides boards and rash guards & a fresh water rinse when you are done. We would highly recommend this experience with You Are Costa Rica. They are top notch!
