A Surfing Community

Playa Santa Teresa in Costa Rica has long been a destination for surfers from around the globe.  The main beach in town is known for its world-class surf breaks and picture-perfect waves.  Playa Hermosa at the northern end of Santa Teresa has excellent surf for beginners along with waves ideal for intermediate and advanced surfers.

The surfing community here IS our community.  Surfing connects us with nature and the outdoors, with good health and adventure, with each other and with people from all over the world.

Surfing has brought us enormous beauty and difficult challenges. It has brought us friendships and connections that last a lifetime. And it has helped us develop a commitment to our environment that resonates around the world.

At Florblanca, we love to host surfers of all ages and all levels.  Learning to surf or getting the chance to surf more challenging breaks brings so much joy to our guests, and to all of us.  We can’t wait to welcome you for your next surf trip to Costa Rica!

Celebrate Your Journey Together

  It’s so easy to get lost in our busy lives. With all the details of our day-to-day existence, we can easily lose the connection with our true passion, our energy, and our spirit.   This lost connection can be magnified to even greater degrees when we’re in a relationship.  The journey we’re on together loses […]
