If you wish to visit a warmer place this winter, and Florida is not enough, then Costa Rica should do the trick. Pura Vida Adventures in Malpais, Costa Rica is the perfect vacation retreat for the discerning woman traveler. Their seven-day adventures, featuring empowering yoga and surfing, are set in the lush surroundings of the Costa Rican rainforest and its stunning beach front.
Starting at $2,095, each package includes daily surf instruction for all levels of skill, daily yoga classes, and an hour-long beachfront massage (great for sore muscles after a day of catching waves). Staying at one of the Hotel Tropico Latino's private beachfront villas or bungalows, you can enjoy the breathtaking sun sets. All meals and local cultural activities are included in the package price.
Tierza Davis, the founder of Pura Vida Adventures, "truly believe[s] that this is great surf/yoga camp for lesbian couples." Though welcoming to single travelers, this is a great vacation for those who "want to learn to surf with their partner." With a relaxing and non-competitive attitude, this surf retreat is well-suited for women who wish to have an active and healthy trip while enjoying the locale's gorgeous scenery.
