I don’t even know where to begin! Just came back from the absolute BEST honeymoon ever at Witch’s Rock. I grew up in California, and never learned to surf. My husband had a little bit of surfing under his belt, but stuck with me in the beginner group. By the end of the week I was actually surfing — I couldn’t believe it. Shout out to Sebas, best coach we could have had. He didn’t treat us like babies, but he was thoughtful and so helpful. Once I got over some fears of the ocean, I had so much fun. 

Everyone from our airport driver, to the shop staff, to the restaurant folks and housekeeping were A++. Breakfast every morning after surfing was perfect. Massages better than anything I’ve had at a fancy spa. We stayed in the Beachfront Studio and spent hours on our little patio staring at the ocean. We ended up eating and drinking on site way more than we expected because the food was so good. I never have high expectations for nachos, but dang—I can’t stop thinking about them.

A couple tips — we came during rainy season, and the studio has a tin roof. I loved the white noise of rain on the roof, but not everyone might be into that. Bring a couple surfing outfits because the humidity makes it tough for things to dry thoroughly. Take advantage of the surfboards when you aren’t in lessons and try a couple kinds. Don’t miss the seminars and strength classes — they really do make a huge difference in your form. The Farmacia about 20m away is great — there’s a doc on site (we ended up needing to go twice). Happy Hour 4-7, 5 dollar Pina Coladas are fresh and perfect for legendary sunsets.

THANK YOU Witch’s Rock staff — you gave us the gift of the perfect way to start our marriage :-) We will be back every year.

Four if us got together to go on a surf trip. We have been friends for over 45 years. WRSC is an amazing place. It is a turnkey operation and all you have to do is get to the airport in Liberia. Vans pick you up at the airport and return you a week later. You have daily surf trips arranged for you with an instructor and travel by boat or by van based on conditions and ability. Surfboards are provided or you can bring yours from home. Hearty breakfast is included daily and is often enough food for 2 meals. We had a great trip and will do it again. It is an excellent place to learn but also a place to improve your skills as an intermediate or avanced surfer. PURA VIDA
