Nosara's first mobile surf school
Est. 2026
Dispatch Surf Co is Nosara's first mobile surf school. Our sprinter van comes stocked with lockers, chargers, showers, gear and drinks. It meets you and your coach at one of Playa Guiones' three entrances. We provide beachside service, eliminating the long walk to the beach and maximizing your time surfing. We offer board rentals, group lessons, kids lessons, camps and more.
