Learn to surf or catch the best wave of your life while staying minutes away from some of Nicaragua's best surf breaks.

Whether you're a seasoned surfer, have only caught a few waves and are looking to step up your game, or want to try surfing for the first time, we invite you to join this 6-night Nicaragua surf camp with our partners at Miramar Surf! On this Central America surf trip, we’ll explore the area’s consistent swells and enjoy the beauty of Playa Miramar and nearby Puerto Sandino, a sleepy, largely untouched, fishing town on the west coast of Nicaragua. Surfers have two options, the beginner package, which features surf lessons, or the advanced package, which will bring you to the best surfing in Nicaragua on a boat with an experienced captain. Both Nicaragua surf camp packages include all meals, lodging, and transportation while tailoring to your Central American surfing dreams, no matter what they may be.

Plans may evolve with weather & guides' judgement, we strive to find the best conditions each day

ITINERARY

Arrival

Meet the private Miramar Surf vehicle at Augusto Cesar Sandino International Airport and take the 2-hour drive to Miramar Surf Camp. Settle into your ocean view room, and depending on what time you arrive, head out with your guide for an afternoon surf lesson, relax by the pool or take a rip around the hotel’s skate park.

Day 2

Enjoy your first relaxing morning at the hotel. Eat breakfast, sip coffee and do some yoga before your day out in the water. One of the best parts about this trip is that you make your own schedule, so talk to your coach and set a time for your lesson. Depending on the waves your coach may suggest that you have your lesson in the morning or afternoon.

Day 3

Repeat! Enjoy another day with your coach and improve your skills! The board rental is yours all day so feel free to head out again if you’re feeling up to it or just relax by the pool. Enjoy lunch back at the hotel, Miramar's Brazilian chief will keep your energy levels high with delicious home cooked meals with ingredients purchased from the local markets or grown in the onsite garden.

Day 4

Take an early surf lesson and try one of the outings that Miramar offers, at an additional cost. Travel to Leon for sandboarding on the Cerro Negro Volcano, go on an eco-kayak or paddle boarding journey or go horseback riding along the beach.

Day 5

Repeat! Enjoy breakfast and head out for a morning sesh with your coach. Explore the nearby area, soak up the sun or surf until your heart's desire.

Day 6

Enjoy your last full day at the hotel and paddle out with your coach one more time. Take advantage of your last night by living it up at a beachside party in Las Penitas or by salsa dancing in Leon. Transportation is not included, but the hotel can help arrange it for you.

Departure

Pack up and enjoy a relaxing morning. If you didn't get to surf on the day you arrived, take a morning lesson with your coach. Let Miramar know when your flight home is so they can arrange the 2-hour drive back to the airport. If you want to stay longer Miramar can help you arrange additional days. Adios!

Location Details

This stretch of coast along the Nicaraguan west coast is home to some epic surfing and a beautiful, very low-key atmosphere. 40 minutes from historic Leon or 2 hours from Managua, the communities along Playa Miramar are close-knit and happy to show surfers the ropes of the area's amazing breaks. Be sure to also check out other local activities, such as the nearby Cerro Negro volcano. From sandboarding to swimming in the volcano’s cool, freshwater lagoon, there is plenty to do within an hour of the beach.

Miramar Surf Camp is located along Playa Miramar in western Nicaragua in a sleepy fishing village. This surf hotspot offers more than just perfect waves. It is graced with opportunity for plenty of recreational activities and a calming, peaceful atmosphere. Blessed with offshore winds, rich with points and beach breaks, it provides sets for all levels of surfers, all year round. There are FIVE breaks within a 650-foot walk, to give you lots of opportunities to score uncrowded waves. The staff and coaches at Miramar want to share this piece of paradise with you and give you both epic and relaxing surf trip of a lifetime!
