Questo viaggio è stato una grande esperienza! Mi sono divertito molto ed è stato così bello essere in vacanza e divertirmi con degli sconosciuti, una volta. Dirò che alcune delle informazioni sul sito di worldpackers non corrispondevano completamente all'itinerario dell'ospite, tuttavia penso che le differenze abbiano reso l'esperienza ancora più divertente! Mi sono davvero divertito con tutte le attività incluse e gli add-on.

Il campo di surf è stato incredibile, ma onestamente sono le persone a renderlo così indimenticabile. Sono venuto per le spiagge, l'avventura e la luce del sole, ma sono partito con tante nuove amicizie, storie e piccoli momenti con persone che in altre circostanze non avrei mai incontrato. Dai sconosciuti che mi hanno accolto come un vecchio amico alle ragazze con cui ho condiviso il viaggio, è stato un promemoria che la parte migliore di viaggiare non è spesso nei luoghi che vedi, ma nelle persone che incontri lungo la strada. Il campo di surf conserverà sempre una piccola parte del mio cuore.

10/10 esperienza! Ho trascorso un periodo incredibile a Manuel Antonio al campo di surf-long surf camp. Brett, il nostro coordinatore di viaggio, è stato fantastico! Molto flessibile, impegnato, e nel complesso ha reso l'esperienza fluida. Ho trascorso un periodo fantastico e lo consiglierò ad altri viaggiatori.

Brett è una guida e un host incredibile. È stato in grado di lavorare rapidamente con i cambiamenti del gruppo, la perdita di membri per motivi personali e riunire il piccolo gruppo così bene! Sembra una fuga perfetta con persone che non avevo mai incontrato, e già dal secondo giorno stavamo stringendo legami e tutto sembrava semplice! L'adattamento al clima è stato l'unico problema che ho avuto e tornare a casa con aria condizionata fresca dopo ogni evento è stato fantastico! Anche nei giorni in cui dovevo restare indietro, non mi sono mai sentito escluso!

Hosted by a team deeply rooted in the Manuel Antonio community, dedicated to preserving the authentic "Pura Vida" spirit. Moving away from commercial tourism, they built a sanctuary that prioritizes local impact, hiring neighborhood staff and treating the community as family. Their focus is on creating a genuine environment where sustainability isn't just a buzzword but a lifestyle—evident in their support for turtle conservation and commitment to mindful living. They guide the group with a philosophy of honest connection, respecting nature, and actively supporting the local ecosystem.
Located in the lush Manuel Antonio region, where the jungle meets the Pacific Ocean, this destination is pure magic. The property is situated just a 10-minute drive from the beach and surrounded by vibrant wildlife. Travelers are a short 5-minute walk or bus ride from local conveniences, yet felt completely immersed in nature. It’s a place where days run on sun and tides, not clocks—a region famous for its national park, stunning biodiversity, and the warm, welcoming spirit of the local "Tico" culture.
This experience goes beyond tourism; it’s about deep connection with the local environment and its people. By staying here, the traveler directly supports a project that prioritizes local employment and community integration. The vibe promotes genuine cultural exchange and respect for nature, encouraging everyone to unplug from screens and reconnect with the wild beauty of Costa Rica and the authentic "Pura Vida" spirit of its inhabitants.
By combining physical activity like surfing with nature immersion and community connection, this experience promotes mental and physical health, encouraging travelers to disconnect from stress and reconnect with themselves.
The project supports the local economy by hiring local workers and staff, ensuring fair wages and fostering sustainable economic growth within the Manuel Antonio community, valuing local talent and resources.
The ocean is our playground, and we treat it with the utmost respect. Through daily surfing and beach time, the group fosters a deep connection with the marine ecosystem, promoting awareness about keeping the coastlines clean and protecting the natural habitat of marine life.
