FAQ

When is the best time to come?

+

The Point lights up on south and southwest swells, which run roughly April through November. That window also overlaps the green season, so expect warm water, the odd afternoon rain, and fewer people in the lineup. Conditions still shift day to day, so we read the forecast for your week and point you to the break that's working.

What level do I need to surf Pavones?

+

The Point is a long, fast left that suits intermediate and advanced surfers comfortable taking off on an open face and riding a wave a long way. If you're still finding your feet, the gentler breaks nearby are the better place to log hours, and one of the camps above is built around exactly that. Tell us honestly where you're at and we'll steer you to the right waves.

How long should I stay?

+

Pavones is swell-dependent, so timing matters more than at a beach break that works most days. A week gives the ocean room to turn on and lets you settle into the rhythm of surfing, resting, and going again. Shorter trips can still score, but you're leaning harder on luck with the forecast.

How do I get to Pavones?

+

Most travelers fly into San José, then either connect to Golfito by small plane or drive south, with the last stretch on dirt road into town. It's remote, and that's a big part of why the lineup stays quiet. Once you're booked, we'll walk you through the route that fits your dates and budget.

How do I choose the right package?

+

Start with what matters most to you: your level, who you're traveling with, or the kind of stay you want. Each package page spells out who it's for and what the trip is built around, so you can match it honestly rather than guess. Still unsure, send us a note and we'll point you to the right one.

How do I book?

+

Send us a message with your dates and how you surf. We'll tell you what to expect, when to come, and whether your timing lines up with the swell, then sort the logistics once you're set. No pressure and no hard sell, just honest advice on whether Pavones is the trip you're after.
