Pura Vida Gardens and Waterfalls is unique in Costa Rica. It is truly a "Visual Masterpiece". The gardens begin with the natural beauty of Costa Rica and four waterfalls in the property with spectacular views of the Pacific Ocean. To this millions of plants, flowers and orchids from all over the world have been added. Manicured walkways meander long a river and at the crest of the mountain which make the entire 50 acre gardens accessible to all. Have lunch in our restaurant and browse the gift shop that offers authentic Costa Rica gifts.

"I am a US citizen but i live in Costa Rica for about 4 years now, i have been to this town many times and had some regular expiriences and some really bad ones surfing here... there is much more then meets the eye when it comes to surf in a surfing town, anywhere you walk there is a surf school or s..."elf proclaimed teacher¨
I decided i take it to the internet and quickly discovered Tortuga Surf School and i knew it was the right call, from the very first moment from the emails to the the conference calls to seting up the itinerary, to the water part of it it was all exelent!!!
This is not the usual comercial camp with colorfull shirts, Mike and his crew are true water men and women totally in love with the ocean and with their work, it was a great time just staying on your board to contemplate this place and the way they transmit their water knowledge over to people.
I did a private surf lesson with Pablo one of the instructors who is also a former national boxing champion and i have...

This place has it all and more, from their great customer services provided by Young CR fellow named Greivin to their huge art collections on their..." sister shop Tico Pot just down the road! you can see the amount of time spend finding this original stuff!
Overall a great place, authentic souvenirs, good prices and the best coffee from all regions of the country, perfect to get things for that someone special.

"I travelled down to Jaco, Costa Rica to take a 10 day surfing workshop with owner Michael Gutierrez. One of the best decisions I've ever made. Michael worked out 7 lessons over the 10 days...sent me the schedule ahead of time and discussed it with me long before I arrived. This man is serious about ..."his surfing!
Michael is a master at his craft...patient, compassionate and enthusiastic...I could feel his love for the sport and his earnestness and zeal in teaching me how to get up on the board and surf!
I wholeheartedly recommend Tortuga Surf School to anyone who wants to learn how to surf...the right way...safely and under professional guidance.
Michael and his crew of trainers was absolutely awesome!
I loved it!
