Discover Tamarindo with Shaka Surf School. Expert local surfers ensure unforgettable memories and smiles. Perfect for all skill levels. Join us for an ocean adventure.
- Beach Parking - Learn to surf from zero to hero! We provide rash guards, leashes, boards, and have sunscreen on hand.
We give 2 hours of instruction, with 30 minutes on land going over positioning, safety, and tips to help you gain comfortability and confidence. We go over rules of surfing and how to stay safe in the ocean and on the board. We then enter the water for around where you are guaranteed to stand up on a wave! You will get one-on-one instruction in the water, getting guided into the waves and your own personal cheer team from the beach! If you are interested in photos please let us know.
If you already feel comfortable and confident on a board, you can also rent per hour or for the duration of your stay, we have body boards for kids and adults as well.
For those interested in stand-up paddle board, or for those with weight concerns, we also offer classes with a stand-up paddle board which offers more support and buoyancy and is even easier to learn on.
