Programs & Staying at Surf Training Lab

Surf Training Residencies

Surf Training Lab offers immersive surf training residencies based in downtown San Juan del Sur, Nicaragua. Programs are intentionally limited and offered only a few times per year to preserve training quality, group cohesion, and lifestyle balance.


If you’re interested in joining a program, or exploring whether it’s a good fit, we invite you to start a conversation with us.

How Staying Here Works


Guests live in private, modern, ocean-view apartments designed for longer stays and independent living. This setup supports the rhythm required for real progression: train, recover, surf, work remotely if needed, and integrate into local life.


Accommodations include:

  • Private apartment with kitchen & bathroom
  • Clean, secure, air-conditioned spaces
  • Strong Wi-Fi suitable for remote work
  • Walkable access to beach, restaurants, music, and daily life


This is not a resort stay or a surf camp bubble. You live in town, train on-site, and surf according to conditions, not a fixed itinerary.

Training Environment


Training facilities are integrated into the property and used in coordination with surf conditions, recovery needs, and individual progression:

  • Surfskate training park & Dry-land training areas
  • Lap / Paddle training pool & Apnea training zone
  • Slack line & Pickleball court
  • Sauna & ice baths
  • Yoga, meditation/breathwork & movement studio
  • Video Analysis studio
  • BBQ event area

 

Programming is structured during official programs and intentionally lighter or informal outside of them.

Local Connection & Support


Rather than packaging experiences, we connect you directly with trusted local partners when appropriate. This may include:

  • Transportation & logistics
  • Surf guides, coaching & video
  • Boat trips, fishing & nature excursions
  • Local tours and cultural experiences


San Juan del Sur offers a rare combination of 300 days per year of offshore winds, strong surf culture, live music, and a rhythm that supports extended stays without burnout.

Who This Is (and Isn’t) For


Surf Training Lab is best suited for people who:

  • Want depth over speed
  • Value consistency and recovery
  • Are interested in month-long immersion
  • Appreciate surf culture, music, and community


It is not designed for:

  • One-week vacation surf trips
  • Drop-in wellness menus
  • High-volume surf instruction

Programs are offered selectively

We prefer to speak with prospective participants to ensure proper fit.
