This American Central country, Costa Rica was occupied by indigenous people until the sixteenth century when it experienced its first Spanish presence. In fact, it got its name Costa Rica from the Spanish, meaning ‘rich coasts.’ This area was first visited by Christopher Columbus and subsequently experienced Spanish presence and colonization, hence the touch of indigenous heritage and Spanish cultures and language. Till today Spanish remains one of the languages spoken in Costa Rica.

How to Learn Surf in Costa Rica

For this subheading, we shall be looking at some simple tips that can guide you in learning how to surf in Costa Rica.

  1. Pick a good teacher

Before you pick a teacher, do research and find out the past record of the teacher in advance. Make sure they are good at what they say they do. A good teacher should inspire you and help you love surfing.

  1. Use big surfboards

Some people at the early stages of surfing are tempted to quickly jump on shorter and smaller surfboard, but a larger surfboard will usually help in building some important mechanics and help you catch a lot more waves.

  1. Get a soft top

In the beginning, you will spend more of the time sitting rather than standing on the surfboard. Soft boards are good starter boards relative to the fiberglass and epoxy boards.

  1. Surf in beginner’s wave

Surf on a beach that has steady and good waves for a smoother learning process. Tackle small waves before you try bigger ones. Even though you feel ready, you are not ready unless your teacher says so.

  1. Keep the rythm

Once you get into the water, make sure to pace yourself. Don’t be in a rush to hit the huge crests right away, there is really no rush as your life might depend on it. Remember you have all the time to surf.

  1. Sit on the surfboard and paddle

Paddling can be exhausting. It’s another thing you need to practice, and the key is to find a rhythm and to keep it. Lastly, know that you will fall many times without number, and you’ll be frustrated in the end but keep trying and don’t let go.
