Surf. Travel.

It´s been a year since I got totally in charge of Eat @ Joe´s; no need to say it´s been a journey full of rewarding and frustrating experiences that really have turned my world up side down....yeah, that´s kind of cheesy but what could you expect from me... Anyways... I´m certainly not a huge fan of self exposure using media people, but after making a lot of thinking on what to put out here, got to admit this is such a great tool to challenge yourself to do new/fun staff...I mean, the better you think run/handle/manage anything, the more confident you become and there´s nothing wrong with being confident, the problem is that suddenly you are stuck in a daily routine, dealing with the same people everyday and feeling pretty good in your well built comfort zone...like there´s nothing else to prove, forgetting about all those resources you have been given that can be used to spice things up and add that extra x factor we'll all need to stand out and survive in this unstoppable competi...

Hello world, can someone please stop by the surf camp and collect our used plastic bottles for recycling? Seriously, the Tamarindo Recycles program said that they couldn't collect it. I heard that the La Paz school would want them as they could make money for their school by recycling them. WRSC unfortunately uses so many plastic bottles, and we're saving them, but we're running out of room. And if there is no recycling program that can take these, perhaps this means someone should start a recycling program... I'd do it if I didn't have so much going on. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you. JoeW

As part of a wider project, we’re leading research about sustainability down here. Unless you already know, WRSC has always been trying to think green, this place was built using local resources and materials, the Pura Vida Health Market provides organic products to our restaurant, and we were one of the first to worry about water treatment in Tamarindo and chose alternate solutions. In the chapter "green energy", last week Joe and I met Jean Luc, chef at Mar y Sol restaurant , in Playa Flamingo. He owns this small biodiesel reactor using the waste oil of the kitchen to make biodiesel! He runs 3 vehicles with it, and hasn’t bought diesel for ages! The process is really simple, and takes less than an hour per day. Check this out! Inspired by this initiative we will soon be having our own biodiesel reactor here at WRSC, recycling the local restaurants waste oil. FT's restaurant has already offered us our used cooking oil, and if you own a restaurant in town and want us to t...

wwww.witchsrocksurfcamp.com/blog As you can see from the video above, we are in the process of turning our current surf shop, reception area, and rental surfboard storage area into one single surf shop. This is such an exciting project, we're stoked! Part of launching the new shop will be our Surfboard Demo Center. This will allow you, the traveling surfer, the opportunity to reserve your surfboard online as far in the future as you would like. Instead of paying $200 (or more) to bring your board and risk damaging it, pay only $100 and have a new rental waiting for you. its gonna be dope! If you are a company wanting to place your product in the new shop, give us a jingle. If you have any ideas on how we can make the shop even cooler, let us know. We'll be cutting the ribbon at some point in July I think...

Hola everyone, we have officially announced the 2 week guided tour in the WRSC School Bus. This is the famous bus that we drove from San Diego, California to Tamarindo, Costa Rica 8 and a half years ago. There have already been 2 bookings this morning since we started taking bookings, we only have 8 spots left. $700/person/week, you can't go wrong! Check out the itinerary here: http://www.witchsrocksurfcamp.com/WRSCguidedbustour.php

this is Bruce. He's from France. For the next 3 months he's going to be working as an intern at WRSC, focusing on the sustainable tourism projects that I've been working on in my spare time. I'm am very stoked to have the help. Expect some great things from Zephyr Eco over the next few weeks....
