For surf schools
Get your school in front of travelers who are already comparing towns
SurfSchools.com helps travelers pick a Costa Rica surf town, then pick a school. Listing is free. Verification is free. No commissions, no pay-to-rank.
Request a listing reviewWhy be listed
Every town guide on this site walks a traveler from "where should I learn to surf in Costa Rica?" to "which school should I book?". A listing puts your school in that second step - with your real details, not a scraped snippet.
We're building the directory town by town and we're honest about being early: fewer listings, held to a higher standard. Schools that verify now are first in line as traffic grows.
Listed vs. Verified
A Listedschool is compiled from public information. It shows lesson types, levels, and typical prices - but no booking button and no ratings, because we won't guess at either.
A Verified school has confirmed its details with us. Verified listings get the badge travelers look for, corrected and complete information, your direct website or WhatsApp as the booking route, and - if you sell on Viator - your exact product linked under your name with its real rating shown.
Full detail on our standards: how listings and verification work.
What to send us
- School name, town, and how long you've been operating
- Lesson types you offer (group, private, camps, kids) and typical prices
- Skill levels you teach and languages you teach in
- Your website, WhatsApp, and/or booking page (including your exact Viator listing, if you have one)
- Any certifications (ISA, lifeguard/first-aid) you want shown
- 2-3 photos you own the rights to (optional, but they help)
We reply to every school. Corrections to existing listings are made quickly, and you can request removal at any time.
What may come later
Owner-managed listings, richer profiles, and lead or booking tools are on the roadmap as the directory grows. Two promises hold regardless: basic listings stay free, and nothing sponsored will ever be disguised as editorial ranking.
