This Costa Rica budget surf package is designed for those who are arriving late into San Jose or who have an early departing flight. Either way you will have your own 4x4 vehicle to make the drive to surfing beach of Playa Grande in the northwest part of Costa Rica. You will spend your first or last night at the the Irazu Hotel, ideally located both near the airport but close enough to downtown  so you can check out the shops, bar and restaurants in San Jose.

The other 6 nights you will stay at the popular Bula Bula Hotel in Playa Grande. Hotel Bula Bula is located in Playa Grande, on the Pacific Northwest of Costa Rica. The 5 kilometer white sand beach boasts one of the most consistent surf breaks in Costa Rica and is known for incredible barrels. The nearly private beach is also a terrific place to unwind and collect seashells. Tamarindo, a town featured in the surfing movie Endless Summer II is just across the estuary. The Hotel is on the Tamarindo estuary (where the Pacific ocean extends inland to meet the mouth of the Rio Matapalo) and about a 5 minute walk to the beach. Playa Grande is an exposed beach break just north of Tamarindo with a hollow peak that can get crowded at the main peak. But there are plenty of fun lefts & rights on the outside ref. & beach break. This break is best at mid - high tide with offshore flow.

 As with all Costa Rica surf packages at Tico Travel, this surf package can also be modified to fit your schedule, so if you can only stay for 5 days or maybe you want to stay 10. You can also change the type of car you need, if you prefer something other then the Bego or Rav 4.
