I throughly enjoyed my first visit to Surf Simply a year ago but during the week you are given so much information and so many tips that it is hard to digest it all. My second time around all the information started to really sink...More

There is a very clear reason why Surf Simply repeatedly receives positive reviews… they provide a surf experience like no other. Ru, the owner of Surf Simply, has established a formula to not only teach surfing (to all level of surfers), but provide the right...More
I am totally stoked with my recent Surf Simply experience.
First and foremost the surf coaching is outstanding.
I have been surfing on and off for over 40 years, and had come to a stagnant phase in my surfing.
I wanted to be able to...More
I NEVER write reviews, but I recently got back from my second trip to Surf Simply and my experience was so good I told myself that I had to write my first review. Every detail is taken care of by Ru and his staff, nothing...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 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.
