Surf com os moradores em Tamarindo Beach

We had the best experience with Nimbu Yumbu surf school! I went up to Yury on the beach after she and another teacher finished a lesson and asked about getting one for my 8 year old son. We exchanged numbers and it was very easy to set things up. Coach Fabian met us on the beach for a 90 minute lesson. He was so wonderful with my son, very warm and helped him catch many waves! What I was most glad about was how watchful Fabian was if my son fell off the board and was still in the waves, Fabian was there in a second and made sure he didn’t get tossed around (he’s a good swimmer but some of the waves are rough). Afterwards he gave my son and my daughter each a fresh coconut. 10/10!! Highly recommend! Pura Vida 🫶🏼

For our first trip to CR, my two teen boys and I booked a surfing lesson with Nimbu Yumbu. We had an excellent time with Yury and Daniel. They were fun, safe, and so encouraging to us as absolute beginners. We all got up on our boards the first day! My normally too cool for school teens were smiling the whole time and we booked a second lesson the next day. I highly recommend Yury and her team, they are great teachers!

Yury and her team were awesome! We went with our friends and our kids. With multiple instructors attentive to our needs we all had a great time. Yury was great with the kids and adapting based on their needs, her team helped us have a great time in the waves. Thank you! Pura Vida!

Yury was amazing with my 13 year old son. We also rented boogie boards from her so we could play in the water while he learned. She’s very sweet and patient. She was also very generous and let us use her beach blanket and keep the boogie boards and blanket for 24 hours. She was also a great resource of where to eat or referral for ATV tours. It was a pleasure to do business with her.

Me and my sister are both complete beginners. The owner, Yuri, took wonderful care of us, showed us the basics and helped us have a wonderful first experience with surfing. Couldn’t recommend more highly.

One of our todo activities on our trip was surfing with the locals. My daughter who has taken surf lessons at a summer camp in Fort Lauderdale past few summer was eager to try the bigger more challenging waves. I had never tried surfing before in my life which is so hard to believe considering I grew up on Ft. Lauderdale beach. Anyway we stumbled into Yuri’s cute surf shop as we were out shopping for bathing suits. Her and my daughter hit it off and I arranged a lesson for the next morning. Yuri convinced me to try myself and share the experience with my daughter and I’m so glad I did. Her cousin Gino helped me and Yuri helped Zeta and long story short we just had an amazing time creating memories together. They have a personal photographer which captures the moments and they are absolutely amazing teachers. Gio makes it look so easy so be patient- it’s not easy but it is enjoyable. Highly recommend them as the only option I would ever consider.

Absolutely recommend! Yury, is so professional and SO SO good with kids. My 10 year-old daughter and I each took a lesson. We both have had our own instructor and they were wonderful. We had so much fun and received excellent instruction both getting up our first time we will absolutely come back! If you have kids or solo adult, this is your place!!

I had taken some surf lessons before and had my own board, but I felt a bit stuck and wasn’t sure how to progress. I asked around on social media, and almost 90% of people recommended Yuri Álvarez. So, I reached out to her, and we formed a little Saturday surf group. We had four sessions together, and the photo I’m sharing shows the difference between day one and the last day—it’s incredible! I learned so much. The service was amazing, the attention to detail was fantastic, and even when I felt nervous at times, she was super professional and helped me through it. I can’t recommend her enough! She’s absolutely amazing, and if you’re looking to level up your surfing skills, definitely check her out!

I had my very first surf lesson with Yury, and it couldn’t have gone better. She was absolutely awesome. Calm, encouraging, and super informative. As a complete beginner, I wasn’t expecting to catch many waves, but thanks to her guidance, I ended up riding more than I imagined! Her clear instructions and positive energy made all the difference. I felt totally safe and supported the entire time. I’d 100% book with her again. Highly recommend Yury to anyone looking to learn how to surf! 🏄‍♂️🌊

We had an awesome time! Yury, Gino and Joshua are awesome instructors. I took my kids and it was their first time surfing. Both of them got up and rode tons of waves. I surfed as a teenager but it had been many years. They got me back onto the waves with no problem! It was a fantastic experience. I would highly recommend them.
