Summer is here and many families are looking to plan a vacation that has the right combination of excitement, education, and a healthy experience. If you and your family want to experience the great outdoors in one of the most beautifully pristine settings on the planet, you can’t go wrong with a fun and affordable vacation to Costa Rica.
Riding waves on a board originated with the peoples of Hawaii several centuries ago. Today, surfing is one of the most popular sports in the world, combining fresh air, sunshine, and excellent cardiovascular exercise in a fun and exciting manner. Thanks to two different ocean currents, the waters offshore the Pacific Coast of Costa Rica are blessed with a variety of waves ranging from gentle swells ideal for beginners to larger barrels perfect for experienced surfers.
Why Is Surfing Great For Kids?
For starters, being out in the great outdoors is a far healthier option than sitting around playing video games or being glued to phones. The weather in Costa Rica is a perfect mix of sunshine, warm water, and fresh air.
Surfing is an excellent sport for kids because it mixes coordination and balance. Coordination isn’t just useful for surfing but also parlays into all walks of life. As children improve their coordination and balance, they will be better positioned to enjoy sports, ride a bicycle, and maintain a healthy lifestyle.
An additional benefit to surfing is that it naturally draws people out of their shells. Kids will open up as they bond with their fellow surfers in the water, laughing and smiling as their self-confidence increases with every wave successfully surfed. Surf camps are a great way for kids to meet new people from around the world and experience new cultures, voices, and perspectives.
