Regardless of your age, we believe that surfing is for everyone! You just need the right guidance and support to get started.
Our instructors are professionals at teaching kids and adults, and your safety is our top priority.
In our surf lessons we use techniques and safety measures structured by the ISA (International Surfing Association), so you can have fun and learn without worrying.
Surfing for us is more than a sport, it's a way of life.

We see the sport of surfing as a combination of calm and stress, explosive energy, and flow, just like the life. And for that, our goal is to teach students how to surf with confidence and feel safe in our surf lessons.

Los niños hicieron una lección de 2 horas. Gran instructor. Todo el tiempo se le podía oír animando positivamente a los niños. Lo recomendaría altamente. El instructor obviamente tenía pasión por el surf y se lo transmitió.

Tuvimos clases de surf el día de Navidad con Álvaro y Jesús. T Subirse a la tabla es un desafío, pero fueron excelentes instructores e hicieron todo lo posible para ayudarnos a aprender a surfear. ¡Nos lo pasamos muy bien!

Highly recommend surf lessons with Alvaro. Had my first surf lesson with him and it was fantastic. I managed to stand up multiple times and am now pursuing surfing back home. Cheers!

The instructor Alvaro is great! He started the lesson with some stretching and surfing theory on the beach, after which we went into the water. He helped us catch waves and spent time with us individually, and gave great recommendations for other tours and restaurants. The photos Loren took of us turned out really great too. Highly recommend!

I highly recommend Tidal Wave for anyone taking a first lesson or wanting to increase their surfing skills. Alvaro is a wonderful instructor. He spent 30 minutes on the beach teaching my granddaughter techniques, getting up on the board, etc. He took her out on the water, and she was up on her board and surfing the first wave she encountered. She had a great experience. I only wish she was here longer so she could have taken another lesson. If and when we are back again, we will definitely be scheduling more lessons. Thank you, Alvaro, for making Claire's vacation memorable! Pura Vida!

Taking a surf lesson with Alvaro from Tidal Wave Surf Academy was an amazing experience for me and my 4-year-old son. Alvaro is a fantastic teacher and made the experience safe and fun for my little one. They provided the appropriate size of surfboard and rashguard for my son and made sure he was comfortable in the water. My son enjoyed every minute of the lesson and was so proud of himself for standing up. It was great for children, as the waves were small and the bottom was sandy. As a whole, we both had a fantastic experience, and we look forward to taking another lesson. I highly recommend this surf lesson for families with young children. It's an experience we'll always remember.

Our family plus group of 8 had an amazing experience, every detail was covered, starting with the organic sunscreen and wrapping up with the fresh fruit mini-bowls. Alvaro and Andre were patient, encouraging, professional and kind. They were attentive to any and all safety concerns, they were detailed with their teaching, guidance, and feedback, and they were super positive. Loren was equally kind and supportive, and captured the joy of our experience perfectly. We can't say enough good things about Tidal Wave! Thank you and pura vida!

Our three kids wanted to take a surfing lessons while in Costa Rica. After lots of searching we found Tidal Wave Surf Academy and I can not recommend them enough! Alvaro's enthusiasm and passion was contagious and he did an amazing job balancing teaching all three kids at the same time. The kids can't wait to surf again! If you are looking for surfing lessons you won't go wrong with Tidal Wave Surf Academy!

Before I came to Costa Rica, my friends and I stumbled upon tidal wave surf academy by its great reviews. We didn’t know what to expect, we never surfed before! Alvaro was our surf instructor and made us feel so comfortable & encouraged us the whole time. We were up on the waves within minutes! He taught us proper technique and what to expect on the water, told us about different conditions and how to stay motivated and not give up. My friend and I were so excited that we felt like real surfers and it has now become our new favorite sport! Thanks to his partner Loran for taking amazing pictures and captured our Costa Rican surf memories forever ️ we loved the lesson so much we did it twice! Highly recommended!

Tidal Wave Surf Academy was AMAZING! Alvaro was so patient and explained goals each day! I enjoyed it so much I added a day! Only thing I wish I would have done was do the video analysis. He offered and I declined, after the fact I realized seeing what I could improve upon would have accelerated my learning process. I highly encourage the video analysis and pictures! PURA VIDA!

Primero que nada quiero decir que no sé nadar y le tengo (tenía ya…) mucho miedo al mar, pero después de varias consultas con Alvaro, finalmente me animé y fui a tomar una clase (con mucho temor, pero fui).
Sinceramente fue de las mejores decisiones que tomé! Gracias Alvaro x ser tan paciente ante mis mil dudas y preguntas y sobretodo por darme la confianza para no sólo aprender sino también disfrutar del mar como nunca antes lo había hecho.
Aprendí, me divertí, me animé me sentí segura y cuidada y con tu ayuda y confianza también superé un bloqueo en mi vida. Gracias Alvaro nuevamente, se nota sos un gran profesional y amas lo que haces! Definitivamente volveré x más clases!

Alvaro is such a professional. Surfing was something my two daughters really wanted to try. He was patient, and kept them very focused and they were both catching waves within 30 minutes. My daughters had an amazing time and we owe it all to Alvaro. Thanks so much!

The surf lesson with Alvaro was one of the highlights of the trip to Tamarindo! His ability to work with kids and make them comfortable trying something new is second to none. With Alvaro's help, we all were surfing before the end of the lesson, the kids were up and surfing after only a few attempts. The photos they capture will help the memories last forever!

If you’re in Tamarindo and looking to try surfing for the first time. Choose this one. Alvaro was amazing. He was calm, patient, and found the right ways to teach us without letting us get discouraged. Almost immediately we were up and riding. He made it seem so simple! Loved every minute of our class. 5/5!

Alvaro was great! My two daughters had a lot of fun and were up on the boards in minutes. Alvaro made sure they had enough sun protection on their face, and some delicious fruit was a nice way to finish off the lesson. You won’t be disappointed with Tidal Wave Surf Academy.
