Die Hochsaison in Costa Rica steht vor der Tür und unser Camp ist GEÖFFNET!
May 22, 2024COSTA RICA, WIR SIND ZURÜCK! Unser Camp wird voraussichtlich am 2. November wiedereröffnet und wir sind so begeistert, den tropischen Traum zu leben, nachdem wir uns schon so lange gesehnt haben.
Wir wissen, dass viele unserer Gäste es auch vermisst haben - Santa Teresa hat eine besondere Art, dir das Gefühl zu geben, angekommen zu sein, obwohl du weit weg bist von zu Hause. Und unser Camp auch! Ein paar gehminuten vom Strand, einem wunderschönen Swimmingpool, einem üppigen Garten und einer schönen familiären Atmosphäre versprechen wir dir: du wirst dich sofort wie zu Hause fühlen. Übernachte mit deinem Freund in einem Doppelzimmer oder buche ein dorm Bett - etwa 25-30% unserer Gäste sind Alleinreisende und es ist wirklich einfach, Freunde im Camp zu finden. Wir können es kaum erwarten, euch alle wieder im Paradies willkommen zu heißen, sodass jeder Moment mehr zählt als je zuvor.
Und - die Hochsaison steht vor der Tür! Costa Rica ist in zwei Hauptsaisonen unterteilt: die Regenzeit und die Trockenzeit. Die trockene Hochsaison beginnt Mitte November mit großartigen Wellen für alle Level. Es gibt viele verschiedene Surfspots für alle Level rund um Santa Teresa und unsere Instruktoren bringen dich zum besten Spot des Tages.
Wenn du von Europa, vielen US-Bundesstaaten und vielen anderen Ländern nach Costa Rica reist, ist keine Quarantäne erforderlich. Weitere Informationen zu deinem Land findest du in unseren FAQ unten.
Wir empfehlen dir immer klimafreundlich zu reisen. Direktflüge sind besser als Flüge mit Zwischenstopps. Es gibt viele Direktflüge von den großen Städten Europas nach San José in Costa Rica, und wir arrangieren gerne einen komfortablen Transfer vom internationalen Flughafen San Jose (SJO) oder deiner Unterkunft in der Stadt San Jose zum Camp. Und wenn du von weit weg hierher reist, ist es besser, ein bisschen länger zu bleiben. Buche noch ein oder zwei Wochen im Camp und sorge dafür, dass dein Surfurlaub noch schöner wird!
Und zu guter Letzt kannst kostenlos umbuchen! Du kannst deine Daten bis 7 Tage vor dem Anreisetag kostenlos ändern und innerhalb eines Jahres ab dem Startdatum der ursprünglichen Buchung auf neue Daten umbuchen.
Also ... schauen wir uns unser Surfcamp in Costa Rica an!

Do you need a test to enter Costa Rica from the EU? Do you need to wear a mask everywhere?
No, you no longer need to show a negative covid-19 test. Masks must be worn in most indoor places like the airport, ferry, taxis, shuttles, supermarkets, banks, pharmacies, shops etc. In restaurants, servers have to wear masks but patrons do not. In town and at the beach masks are not required.
Is December a good month to learn to surf?
Yes, we plan the lessons after tides and weather. It means that level 1 lessons will be held on good beginner spots during the time of the day when the waves are the smallest and most suitable for that level.
Can I rebook my trip for free if I need to?
Yes, you can change your dates free of charge up until 7 days before arrival day and you can rebook to new dates within 1 year from the original booking's starting date.
Can you travel from Europe without having to quarantine?
According to visitcostarica.com, no quarantine is required.
Is Costa Rica suitable for more advanced surfers?
Yes, the waves are bigger June - July. The waves are cleaner during January - February. There are plenty of different surf spots for all levels around Santa Teresa
How many of your visitors travel alone?
Throughout the last year, around 25-30% of our guests have been solo travellers. It´s really easy to make friends at the camp!
What months do you get the biggest swells?
Costa Rica is basically divided into two main seasons: the wet season, and the dry season. While there’s plenty of surf to be had in both seasons, the wet season tends to be bigger, better, and more consistent.
The wet or “rainy” season in Costa Rica is from May until mid-November. It’s during this season that the Pacific dishes out a healthy serving of northwest, south and southwest swells. Costa Rica loves a good SW swell making June, July, August, and September some of the biggest and most promising months. It’s also good to note that northern Costa Rica tends to be drier than the rest of the country during the wet season.
Are January and February good months to surf in Costa Rica?
Yes, definitely! The waves are smaller, but cleaner, and the weather is beautifully sunny!
How experienced are the surfers that choose to travel with Lapoint?
We have classes for all levels, no matter if you’re a beginner or already living the dream!
How do I know if I´m good enough for level 2?
Level 2 is for those who have surfed a few times and can catch green waves. You can always adjust your level once you are at the camp if you feel that you’re not in the right group.
Have you already got bookings for November or will I be solo at the camp?
Don´t worry, we have bookings for every week in November.
What are the opening restrictions on bars, restaurants and beaches in Santa Teresa?
Bars and nightclubs are currently not open but restaurants are. Servers have to wear masks but patrons do not.
Is it easy to travel on public transport through Costa Rica right now?
Yes, it is. A mask is required in all forms of public transportation.
What is the best surf spot?
Depends on skill level and experience. Right out front at Playa Carmen, we have nice white water for beginners and long peeling waves for intermediate/advanced surfers. If you’re looking for faster and hollow waves then northern Santa Teresa has some nice options.
How many people are allowed at the camp due to COVID? Is it full capacity or reduced?
The camp is at full capacity but it’s a spacious camp and we have a plan in place if anyone gets sick and needs to be evacuated to a private room.
What if my flight gets cancelled? Can I reschedule
Yes as soon as you get a flight cancelled and can’t get another one in time please send us an email with your cancelled flight details and we will move you to another date that works for you in the future.
Do I have to arrive on a Monday?
So at the camp, we follow a weekly schedule and we usually recommend arriving in San Jose on Sundays since it takes around 6-7 hours to get to the camp. We can, however, be a little flexible here if you are struggling to find flights on the right dates just email our customer care team to enquire about different arrival dates info@lapointcamps.com .
