A Jungle Surf Adventure on video
The Osa Peninsula in Costa Rica is more than a jungle retreat—it’s a hidden gem for surfers seeking pristine, (quite) uncrowded waves in one of the world’s most biologically intense environments.
If you’re looking for an unforgettable surf experience combined with jungle exploration, this is your dream destination. And there’s no better place to stay than Encanta La Vida, a family-run ecotourism lodge that provides the ultimate surf base amidst the wild beauty of Costa Rica.
Surfing at Encanta La Vida: Perfect Waves and Pure Bliss
Encanta La Vida is set just steps away from some of the best waves on the Osa Peninsula, making it ideal for surfers of all levels.
Whether you’re after the mellow, longboard-friendly waves of Pan Dulce or ready to chase something a bit more challenging, the peninsula has it all, like Matapalo and if you take a boat you can even go to Pavones.
Early mornings start with yoga at the lodge’s shala, overlooking the waves—a perfect warm-up for a day on the water. And when the surf conditions align, you can expect glassy, rolling waves that break beautifully, offering plenty of ride time and room to practice.
Jungle to Sea: A Unique Adventure
The lodge offers easy access to several breaks, each with its own unique vibe, plus breathtaking views of the coastline from the board. And when you’re ready for a break, the adventure doesn’t stop.
From whale-watching excursions to fishing for roosterfish, the peninsula provides endless possibilities. And when the waves take a pause, there’s no shortage of jungle activities—waterfall hikes, tree canopy challenges, and wildlife sightings make every moment unforgettable.
