May 2024

Imagine a perfect day at one of the world’s best waves. The waves are a mile-long and locals are sharing the lineup with people like Kyle Kennelly, Ryan "Chachi" Craig, Sean and Leon Glatzer, and surprise guests from the Channel Islands team.

Expect to score mile-long waves

Expect to score mile-long waves

One of the best waves in the world, period. A typical good day is 4-6ft at the peak and 2-4ft on the inside. Regardless of the size, the wave height tapers off as it moves down the point, meaning there’s something for all skill levels and we have boat trips planned for nearby waves.

Daily guiding and coaching with a local Olympian

Hometown hero / Olympian Leon Glatzer and locals like Will Farley, Maykol Espinoza, and Tavo Rio will be your guides in the lineup. Back at the house, we’ll do film analysis with Leon so you're guaranteed to go home with more skills than when you arrived.

In a luxury 3 villa compound

We’ve got a hillside compound overlooking the surf featuring stylish, comfortable digs through all 3 houses. On the beach we will have a spot where you can refresh and swap boards. Transport to and from the house is a breeze so you can surf as much as you want.
Parrots in Pavones

“Discovered in the early 1970s and shrouded in mystery for decades, Pavones is as roots as it gets. The community has kept the area much like it was back in the day.”

FAQs

What will a typical day be like?
Early morning surfs, breakfast, midmorning surfs, midday naps, afternoon surfs, video analysis, then dinner. Some days we will take the boat to nearby waves and eat out in town, other nights it's meals at the house and talk story with the crew by the fire.
How well do I need to surf?
You don't need to rip, but you should be able to paddle out and catch your own wave. Your guides will be in the water with you to coach if you want to improve your skills.
What if I can’t go in May?
Keep your eyes on the site as we release dates for future residencies. If you'd like to set up a private trip with Maykol, we're here to help.
Can I book a whole week just for me and mine?
Absolutely. If you want to book a whole week, we'd love to chat so we can help tune this trip for your gang.
How do I get there?
Book a flight to San Jose, Costa Rica and then on to Golfito and we will pick you up from there, feel free to leave your boards at home.
How many surfers can go each week?
We've designed this trip for 8 surfers, but if you and yours need a couple more spots, please let us know.
Okay, how much?
Each week-long trip is $4,500 per person. If you're going solo and want a room to yourself it's a little bit more.
