About
Step up your surfing with Lorenzo and his team
Learn to surf in Santa Teresa with a pro coach known for mastering the punchiest waves in the area.
His story
Pura vida, it’s a lifestyle
Fuelled by the raw power of the ocean, Lorenzo is a self-taught free (professional) surfer who’s constantly pushing his performance — and fully committed to making your surf dream a reality.
Brought to this area while still in diapers and raised in the nearby town of Cabuya, he grew up like many local kids: swept into the ocean early and instantly hooked. In pursuit of happiness and chasing the dream of riding waves, he surfed for Costa Rica’s Junior National Team, competed across Costa Rica and Central America, and today films projects and travels as a professional free surfer.
His free spirit and constant will to improve have taken him around the globe in search of challenge and perfection — Portugal, Brazil, Mexico, Central America, the USA and beyond. Between chasing swells he became an experienced, certified surf coach — and after hundreds of hours of practice, Getaway Surf was born.
