South Pacific Surf

South Pacific Surf uses Xandari in Alajuela as an arrival stay before moving to Selva Armonia near Uvita. Three nights in this coastal region leave two full days to discuss surf sessions around Uvita and Dominical, with conditions and ability guiding the choice of break. The rainforest setting also gives nonsurfing travelers reasons to enjoy the coast.

Four nights at Bosque del Cabo in Cabo Matapalo take the trip into the Osa Peninsula's wilder landscape. Here the forest is as much a part of the experience as the ocean, and wildlife watching can fill the hours between surf sessions. The starting trip has open days rather than included lessons or guided excursions. The return night at Xandari gives the journey a practical finish before international departure. Ask Pacific Trade Winds to discuss appropriate surf access, transport and optional nature experiences throughout the route.

Xandari frames the journey with an Alajuela stay at the beginning and another before international departure. These nights give the longer coastal portion a practical connection to San Jose International Airport, rather than implying the trip ends at Cabo Matapalo. Time at the property depends on the confirmed transfers; extra spa services, meals and sightseeing require separate arrangements.

Three Selva Armonia nights begin the coastal portion near Uvita, with two open full days to discuss suitable surfing around Uvita and Dominical. Conditions and ability determine the choice of session, while the forest-and-coast setting also suits travelers taking time away from the water. The starting trip includes no lessons or guided excursions; additional instruction and outings are separate requests.

Bosque del Cabo gives the Osa chapter four nights, letting rainforest observation share the vacation with surfing interests. This wilder setting differs from the more developed surf towns, and local advice matters for ocean access and conditions. Guided nature experiences need their own confirmation. After this coastal stay, the route returns to Xandari in Alajuela before the international flight.
