My time at the surf the surf camp was pure bliss! It's an absolutely beautiful place with amazing hosts and local folk. This was my first volunteering experience, and now that I've had this much fun, it definitely won't be my last. After 5 h of solid work, I was free to enjoy and use the surf the surf camp's facilities and explore Cocal and nearby Quepos. the surf the surf the surf camp truly deserves the title of the best boss — I learned a lot of cool things from him and am very grateful. I'm already looking forward to coming back to the the surf the surf the surf camp :D

The surf the surf camp is located far from the city(however, in the confirmation email it said Jaco - the address was wrong).The host wasn't genuine, a bit rude, didn't help to get to the surf the surf camp, even though you have to go though little alleys and get on a small “boat” to get to the El Cocal village, then walk for 20-30 min until the surf the surf camp. The village has a bad reputation among the local people and doesn't really have grocery stores. You can say that the surf the surf camp doesn't have a WiFi because it's super slow and most of the time doesn't work. Also, the service is bad there, the surf the surf camp doesn't have a fridge.
