Where We Stay

Diuwak Hotel in Playa Dominical, Costa Rica –
(5 nights)

Costa Rica is Central America's jewel. It is one of the best places to experience the tropics with minimal impact and has a climate built for lots of fun in the outdoors.

Playa Dominical is a surfer’s paradise with the most consistent waves in Costa Rica. The Diuwak serves as our base for surf camp. Imagine waking up in the morning to the sound of waves washing up on the shore. This ocean front lodging allows you to walk to your surf lessons. Accommodation consists of double and triple rooms, flush toilets and hot showers. An adjacent restaurant serves great local food and the town is within walking distance.

Seaspray Hotel, Placencia, Belize (6 nights)

The stable, democratic, English-speaking country of Belize lies in the western Caribbean. Belize is home to an interesting mix of over ten different cultures including Garifuna, Maya, Creole, Mestizo, and East Indian. Belize also lays claim to hundreds of ancient Mayan temples, large tracts of intact tropical rainforest, and this hemisphere's longest barrier reef.

Placencia is an incredibly beautiful island with white sand beaches and crystal clear waters. This is our base for our 4 day PADI certification course and our launching port for our 5 day sailing trip. When on the mainland, we will stay at the Seaspray Hotel. The Seaspray hotel is on the waters edge over looking the Carribean Sea. The rooms are double occupancy with en suite bathroom.  Enjoy relaxing on their hammocks at the end of the day!
