SURF
Tamarindo beach is the perfect beach to learn how to surf!
This spot became very popular in the 70's thanks to the famous movie "Endless Summer".
You will find many experimented surf teachers on the beach, or you can go to a surf school that have storefronts on the main street, like Iguana surf, or SALT surf, all very professional and passionated.
