Family of three, walked in to check on surfing and were given an instructor within a half hour. Took a group surf lesson for 90 minutes with Nelson. He was a phenomenal instructor!! The rest of the staff was friendly and helpful with more than just surfing, as we reserved another tour while waiting.

Just wrapped up an awesome 3 week vacation in Nosara thanks to Coconut Harry's. Marc, who runs the shop, has plenty of local expertise to share - he knows about everything from surfboards and interesting day trips to real estate and where to buy fish. He can arrange everything for you with no stress. The surf instructors at Coconut Harry's... More

My friend and I just spent a week in Playa Guiones and took our lessons from Luigi at Coconut Harry's. Luigi was a fantastic instructor and made our week a success! Everyone at the shop was helpful and really nice. Thanks and we will be back!

We rented surfboards, boogie boards and snorkles from here. They have two lolcations now. The one opposite the entrance to the beach is very convenient. They were informative and gave good service. One of us (an experienced surfer) had a lesson and really enjoyed learning from a Costa Rican champion.

Just spent a week in Nosara with 8 adults and 8 high school teenagers. Coconut Harry's was fantastic to work with our large group for surfing lessons and boards for the week. Jordy was a fabulous instructor for all of us and made it easy for us moms to get right up on the board. Marc that runs the surf... More

Can't thank the beach crew enough for making our experience to Nosara the best possible. Mark and all the employees took really good care of us, from break tips to taking care of our rentals each day. Our boards would already be in the daily rack by the time we would pick our boards up each morning. They have a... More

Marq, Luigi and the guys at Coconut Harry's made our vacation in Nosara. We were not experienced surfers prior to this trip and after 2 lessons we were surfing waves I never expected I'd be surfing. The guys at Coconut Harry's had experience teaching inexperienced surfers but also exceptional skill at assessing our ability levels with very little experience with... More

As a beginner+ surfer, I had a lofty goal for 2013 -- not only get up consistently and ride waves, but ride a wave big enough (and well enough) that I could go down the line. After hearing about the great waves in Nosara, I finally made it down there this year. A friend who had been in Nosara a... More

Jordan is a great instructor -- very clear and patient, always keeping it fun. When you're doing ten things wrong, he picks out the most important and focuses you on it, so you can see improvement pretty fast. It's not so easy for us older folks to learn new things, but after a few days I was up and riding... More
