About Costa Rica Surf Trip

Costa Rica Surf Trip! is a family business, founded in 2015 by Costa Rican, Jairo Zuniga & New Yorker, Meg McGuire with the idea of sharing surfing, Costa Rican nature and waves with visitors in a safe and epic way!  They were inspired by traveling to visit friends to surf their home spots around the world, and their goal is to offer you a TRULY local experience with the best of the best in everything Costa Rica!

Officially established as a company in 2015, we have been teaching people to surf and where to find the best of Costa Rica waves, food, activities, trips and culture for over 15 years!  Our staff are committed to making your Costa Rica Vacation the best experience possible!

Meet Our Team

Headquarters: Playa Sámara

 Just beyond those trees lies the center of Playa Sámara, Costa Rica.  This is our home base: a small town with a generally uncrowded beach that curves about 7km around a beautiful bay with its very own island called "Isla Chora."  Waves at base are mostly for beginners and intermediates and, because of the reef, we do not experience rip-tides.  For intermediate and advanced surfers, we suggest the 1/2 day, full day, or week-long surf trips that take you to surrounding beaches or throughout the best spots along the 800 miles of Costa Rican coastline (it's not called the "rich coast" for nothing)!

We have multiple grocery stores and banks, two public schools and multiple multi-lingual private schools, fresh fruit vendors, souvenir and craft vendors, B&Bs, hostels, shops, restaurants, a gym/spa, foreign language teacher certification school, a language school for teens and adults, a massage school, bars, nightlife, and tours of all sorts (including kayaking, snorkeling, fishing, quads, zip-lining, horseback riding, sea-turtle nesting, dolphin and whale-watching, and, of course, SURFING, among others)!  What we do not have are fast-food chains, or 8-lane super-highways, and we prefer it that way!

MERCHANDISE:

We have a variety of items designed for Costa Rica Surf Trip on sale including apparel and gifts.  Use them to surprise your loved one with a trip to Costa Rica, or as a commemorative souvenir for yourself, family, and friends!
