Highlights

Experience surfing in Tamarindo with White Sand Surf School, where every level of surfer is welcome. What sets us apart is our focus on more than just teaching—you’ll gain the skills, safety, and confidence to surf independently. Your experienced instructors specialize in beginners, intermediates, and advanced surfers, tailoring each lesson to your goals. At White Sand, we believe understanding the ocean is just as important as standing on the board. That’s why we teach you how to read waves, connect with the elements, and truly feel at home in the water. Whether it’s your first wave or your hundredth, every session is designed to help you surf your best and leave the ocean stoked.

About Tamarindo

Tamarindo is a surf town on Costa Rica's Guanacaste coast, with a wide sandy bay, an estuary and a strip of beach bars looking west to the sunset.

Tamarindo grew from a fishing village into the main beach town of Guanacaste, with its beach, shops and restaurants strung along one main road. The bay has gentle waves for beginners, and surf schools line the sand, while more powerful breaks lie a short drive along the coast. The estuary at the northern end shelters mangroves where herons and the occasional crocodile are seen from kayaks.
