“I absolutely LOVED my experience with Witch’s Rock Surf Camp!! As a single traveler, I was a bit nervous and anxious about what to expect. Every part of the trip was incredibly thought out. I never felt alone and everyone I met was incredibly open and friendly. Mateo was an AMAZING instructor who made every lesson fun and exciting and always made me feel safe. His passion for the sport truly shines in his instructing abilities.”

The Best Location
Witch’s Rock Surf Camp is located beachfront in Playa Tamarindo, Costa Rica. If you’ve never been here, you’ll be surprised to find all the amenities you need for a successful solo trip. Within 10 minutes walking from camp, you’ll fun multiple pharmacies, fresh fruit markets, souvenir shops, yoga studios, gyms, over 50 restaurants, and the best nightlife in Costa Rica.
From the moment you land in Liberia International airport (LIR) 1 hour away, you’ll be comfortably transported to the beach. You can also set up non-surfing tours from our front desk like ziplining, ATV tours, snorkeling, fishing charters, and more. No rental car required.
Waves for Everyone
Playa Tamarindo and the surrounding area is ideal for surfers of all levels. Beginners will enjoy the mellow, user-friendly waves out front that build confidence and help you improve.
Intermediate and advanced surfers will be guided to a handful of World Class Waves that are located right around the corner. Our region in NW Costa Rica receives 300+ days/year of sunshine, predominant offshore winds, and warm 80°F water year round.
Safe and Secure
Safety is our #1 priority. Witch’s Rock Surf Camp sponsors the Tamarindo Lifeguard Program, with the main lifeguard tower located directly in front of the surf camp. All of our surf instructors are CPR certified and have extensive ocean safety training. An emergency clinic is conveniently located directly next to our resort property.
And most importantly there are 24-hour guards on site 7 days a week. But don’t take our word for it… Take a moment to read a female solo traveler’s first-hand experience at WRSC
