Chica Surf Adventures

The most amazing trips… EVER!!! Amanda, the organizer, plans everything out for the week and even gives you time to yourself or to do something that interests you in the area. The locations she has chosen are fabulous. I did the Costa Rica trip and met some amazing women, learned to catch a wave the first day, ate delicious fresh food and experienced paradise. Nine months later I went to Hawaii, and again Amanda did not disappoint! These trips are for the adventurous and novice. You don’t need experience surfing, but if you are a surfer your skills will be sharpened. And you don’t have to be a certain age, coming from a 45 year old first timer! There are so many things to do, you’ll want to extend your stay. The town of Santa Teresa is quaint, you can walk everywhere. And the people are so friendly. It’s so humbling that the town closes before sunset so everyone can enjoy the beautiful event on the beach. I loved the photos that were taken throughout the trip and put on a disk for each of us to take home, great memories! Hawaii was incredible, awesome surfing, beautiful beaches, many activities and fresh delicious food. The house we stayed in was beautiful and all the women I met were amazing. We were able to surf daily and had videos to show! I will definitely do another trip. Amanda goes above and beyond… and it’s because she loves what she does! Put this on your bucket list!

I did the Costa Rica surf camp and had an amazing time. Amanda organizes everything for you, you don’t have to worry about a thing — a real amazing host. The town Santa Teresa is all you could want for a quiet, chill, surf spot. You’ll really experience Costa Rica. The surfing instruction is the best. It was my first time and I fell in love with it and actually improved by the end of the week. It’s now another hobby for me to enjoy. It’s a great deal for your money too. Amanda, the residents of Santa Teresa, and the Staff at The Funky Monkey are so generous, and will make you feel at home.

Chica Surf Adventures was soooo much fun! Loved every moment. It was a perfect balance of learning to surf, getting to know the fun activities in the area, along with meeting the local people (and the monkeys)! Surfing almost every day with a group of awesome chicas, ziplining, snorkeling, jumping in the waterfall, yoga, spa treatment, watching every beautiful sunset, and of course eating the amazingly delicious, healthy food all added up to the trip of a lifetime! I truly didn’t want to leave and can’t wait to go back. I would highly recommend this trip. Thank you Amanda for being an amazing guide and friend.

I went to Costa Rica with my aunt and girlfriends and we all had the vacation of a lifetime! Amanda and company combine the perfect amount of surfing, other activities and free time for a perfect balance. Costa Rica is magical and the people are incredible! Don’t worry if you don’t know how to surf, none of us did and we were all riding waves by the end of the first day. Pura Vida!

Ladies, I’m going to tell you right now that this is one fun week! You spend a week learning to surf and other activities, while bonding with an awesome group of women. There’s a waterfall hike, a day trip to the white sands of Isla Tortuga, ziplining, and going out at night to the clubs. This an awesome trip to take with your girlfriends, or to even go by yourself.
I went the first time by myself, after seeing it promoted on Living Social adventures, and had such an excellent time that I convinced a girlfriend to go with me a year later. She said it was one of the best vacations ever. And I improved my surfing (which is saying a lot; I’m not the best; but it’s fun!).
Amanda has a solid-​gold package in this vacation. Go for it! You’ll love it!
