The pretty ocean-side town of San Juan del Sur is the center for surfer culture. The best surf breaks in the country are within 20 miles of this village, and people come from around the world to try them. Playa Maderas is the surfing beach closest to town, and the most popular. It is said to break best at medium to high tide. Another beach with excellent barrel waves, Playa del Yankee, is much less crowded.
San Juan is not just for surfers though. It is also an authentic small town, set on a beautiful curve of beach. There are open air cafes facing the ocean, where people gather to eat fresh seafood and chat. There are quaint streets, with local vendors and small shops. Snorkelers, divers, and jet-skiers also enjoy San Juan del Sur, because it's not crowded or overdeveloped yet.
Franny helped us put together a great itinerary, was very responsive and so helpful. We ended up not being able to use Adventure Life for our trip, but would definitely use them in the future.

Jess H helped plan an incredible holiday to Costa Rica for us. She was great from the start, she really listened to what we wanted from the trip and took into account mobility issues by arranging different excursions. The whole planning process was easy and stress free even with us being in the UK and them being in the US. I would highly recommend using Adventure Life to anyone thinking of planning a trip. They are also priced very competitively which made it even better.

COSTA RICA a trip of a life time travelling round this beautiful country. All went like clockwork even when the weather was against us and all transfers seemed to be part of the holiday not a chore. Would definitely use Adventure Life again having previously used them 20 years ago!!

Adventure Life helped me plan my trip to Antarctica. They always responded fast to my emails and were a pleasure to deal with.
