Splash around in the waves and laugh until it hurts. Let go of your fears and open your heart. Share that bottle of wine or decadent dessert! We offer women of all ages the chance to reconnect and be empowered through a newfound sisterhood inspired by the love of surfing.
ADVENTURE: Let us show you the best that Costa Rica has to offer. Join us on daily surf expeditions to palm-fringed beaches, fly through the jungle on a zip-line tour, float in a tide pool at sunset, or hop in our trusty surf van “The Yellow Submarine” for an afternoon trip to some hidden waterfalls. Or get wild like a local and rent your own ATV for the day! Our hostess will help you set up the adventure of a lifetime.

WOMEN’S SURF & YOGA RETREATS
Join us in the community of “Pura Vida”!
Most of the PVA team started surfing when there were still very few women in the water. This is why we are SO passionate about teaching the beautiful, transformative, and amazing sport of surfing to women from all over the world.
With every group of women who come to our retreats in Costa Rica, we see the incredible way that surfing and yoga can empower, energize, and enliven people’s lives. Whether you’re in your first year of college or first year of retirement, surfing and yoga will help grow your strength and joy in your body and soul.

WAVE REVIEWS
“The most eloquent words that come to mind when I think about my surf camp adventure in Malpais – life changing. Pura Vida taught me how to surf, how to be tranquil, how to conquer my ocean fears and most importantly… how to enjoy life. The scenery is breathtaking, yoga and surf instruction are fabulous, accommodations are great…I came to surf camp, never having been on a surfboard. I left 7 days later “hanging 10″, meeting lifelong friends and coming away with the best experience of my life.””
