Bolt surfing Costa Rica – More Action

More two days of “Pura Vida”
After finally arriving at Rancho Burica at night, really close to Pavones, we still managed to feel that we were close to paradise, and we also had a really great reception, with a fabulous meal. We woke up surrounded by the sound of waterfalls, beautiful flowers and a huge flora diversity.
Now we realized why the locals were considered the happiest people in the world.
It was time to start surfing Pavones, a really long left so fun to surf. We spent the days surfing, shooting, eating, exercising, and sleeping beneath the palm trees.
At night all the riders want to check the photos, the footage and the rest of time with some drinks and party to relax.

Also amazing is the fauna in here. We already saw parrots, iguanas, monkeys, crocodiles, and so many others.
The nearest village is Punta Banco, where you only have a school, a church and a mini-supermarket, but who needs more when you’re enjoying this natural born paradise and such fun waves.
The best photos are still to come, hided in Ricardo Bravo’s camera.

The nature is the queen in Costa Rica. Even in shops you must be aware of that.

Surf is not everything. Another way of riding waves.
