Come As You Are
You don’t need to be an advanced surfer—or already have someone to go with.
Maybe you’ve dreamed about taking a surf trip, but booking one on your own feels intimidating. You may still be learning, not have friends who can travel with you, or feel nervous about arriving somewhere without knowing anyone.
That is exactly why we’re creating this trip.
The Ventura Surf Girlies Costa Rica trip is designed for women who want to surf, explore, and experience Costa Rica with a built-in community. Come by yourself, come at your current level, and leave with more confidence, new memories, and an entire crew of surf friends.
WHAT YOUR TRIP INCLUDES
The surf trip details are handled. You get to show up and enjoy it.
7 Nights at Witch’s Rock Surf Camp
Stay steps from the beach in the heart of Tamarindo.
Daily Surf Coaching
Surf each day with coaching and support based on your comfort level, goals, and the conditions.
Boards & Surf Gear
Use quality surfboards and equipment throughout the trip without having to travel with your own.
