This isn't just a surf school. This is the best surfing experience on the planet. I can't imagine any other place would put anywhere near the same amount of effort and energy into the entire experience as Surf Simply does - everything is thought about...More
Ok, it's now 4 months since I spent 2 weeks at Surf Simply and I thought I'd wait for the euphoria to die down and the smile to leave my face. However, every time I look at my photos or the weekly vids posted by...More
There are many reviews of surf simply so in this review I'm not focusing on the people, accomodation, food or the vibe (all excellent) but rather on the things I, as a level 3 average joe surfer, wanted to know before I made a booking...More
Surf Camp for adults with exceptional coaches, excellent food, amazing surf and beautiful roomy accommodations. I took my husband here for his birthday. Coach Prado took me from super novice, riding the white water, to getting out back and catching waves to shore. His extreme...More
Trip of a lifetime for me, a crusty 60 yr old surfer who first paddled out at Huntington Beach in 1973. My son traveled with me and we both had a great time and were fortunate to catch some really good surf provided by a...More

The surf in Nosara is good year round but below is a more detailed description of the average surf conditions throughout the year. It's important to remember however that these are based on statistical averages made up on many days which are exceptions. So while you can predict the average for a time of year, it is impossible to predict the conditions for any given week.
In Nosara, the dry season months of December to March can be a more crowded as North American tourists escape the winter. The most popular months at Surf Simply however are June, July and August. These months offer the most consistent swell window of the year also the pleasant afternoon showers keep the heat down and mean that the jungle is at it’s most beautiful.
A typical season sees knee to head high surf from November to March, then shoulder to overhead surf between April to September. This is a mean average however, so it is perfectly possible for any given week in August to be smaller than any given week in December.
The wind, which blows mechanically off shore every morning from November until May, usually turns on shore mid morning and then offers an evening glass off about 50% of the time.
In the greener months of June to October the wind is less predictable but the surf is glassy in the morning about 75% of the time and a lunch time shower will often cause the wind to die off in the afternoon, giving us smooth conditions once again. This is another advantage these months have over the more arid months of Dec – Apr.
It's a great care down there. Our wives did the yoga and we went for a day excursion zip lining.
We had an amazing experience. The surfing was new for me as I primarily kitesurf and windsurf. The instruction was first rate... More

We had an amazing experience. The surfing was new for me as I primarily kitesurf and windsurf. The instruction was first rate and our experience was great. It's a boutique setting so it was very intimate. It is a very well run and organized place. We will definitely go back. Hope that helps. Good luck.
