Summer Students Update: June 26th 2012

It’s officially summer here at Outward Bound Costa Rica! Tune in to our blog on Tuesdays & Fridays for updates on our students’ adventures here in Costa Rica.

Summer Courses (Open Enrollment)


Surf Intensive #1

Our skilled surfers spent several days mastering the waves at Playa Tulin and have now moved down the coast to Manuel Antonio. Besides catching waves, they’ll get to visit the national park which is home to a variety of monkeys, sloths and lots of other wildlife.

Hike & Homestay Adventure #1

The ladies of our Hike & Homestay Adventure are almost half way through the hiking phase of their course. This week they will participate in a technical tree climb and a waterfall rappel before heading to the beach.

There’s still room in Session 3 for our Surf Intensive and Hike & Homestay Adventure courses! Know someone who’s joining us this season? Receive a 10% Friend & Family discount when you enroll in a 2012 Summer course.

Girl Scout Destinations Courses


Underwater Explorers #1

After 5 days of training in the archipelago of Bocas del Toro, the girls are just about to finish NAUI Scuba certification! They’re enjoying the rest of their time in Panama with a day of sailing and exploring a local artisan market.

Catching Waves #1

After a day of whitewater rafting, the girls left for Playa Avellanas, a beautiful beach in the Guanacaste province of Costa Rica. They’ve been having a great time camping on the beach and learning surfing techniques. So far they’ve been fearlessly catching waves on this famous Pacific Coast break!

Rainforest, River & Reef #1  and Service Challenge #1

Both of these Destinations courses are arriving today. Stay tuned for updates!
