Costa Rica is a beautiful country and it’s perfect for enjoying water sports: it has a fantastic kitesurfing & windsurfing spot called Playa Papaturro: it is located in the bay called Bahia Salinas, on the north pacific coast in the Guanacaste province, the sunniest and driest side of Costa Rica. Around this bay there are very beautiful and little-unknown beaches perfect for snorkelling after an epic kite session. The bay is also home to an island (Isla Bolanos) with a white beach and turquoise water, famous because it is an important nesting spot for birds. You can also enjoy half mile of reef with complete flat water. Here it's common to kitesurf among giant turtles and pelicans. You have plenty of space around you to kitesurf surrounded by untouched nature!

Kite surfing is an incredible experience! You can fly on the water up to 10 meters (30 feet) high and easily plain, stopping at all limitations due to metereological conditions or to the sea: you can always enjoy yourself, jumping and realizing acrobatics. ....but this sport can be dangerous if people try to attempt it without knowledge!! A course is really suggested to avoid risks and frustrations.

Now, the school kitesurfing 2000 (the first kite school of Central America, operating since 2000) has been relocated from Playa Copal to playa Papaturro because of its better characteristics and to welcome better the guests in the new Blue Dream Hotel & Spa:

  • The beach is almost 2 km long without "shore break" waves, so there is more space.
  • The Hotel is only 250 mts. away from the kitebeach
  • There are no people or boats around you to worry about.
  • The water is fairly flat, choppy only with more then 20 knots.
  • The wind is completely Side Shore which is very friendly and safe for kite surfers and this means that the wind is less gusty.
  • There are trees behind the beach to relax in the shadow.
  • This place is one of the best spot in the world as far as number of windy days in the year!

Check the Wind data as reference.

The kite surfing school 2000 use the last year BEST KITEBOARDING gear for the courses and rentals. We sell new gear ask in advance for availability.

During these last 6 years we
