“Best Surf Trip Ever”

"We felt like part of a family, too much fun. The lodge is extremely clean, well organized, very well maintained, all amenities we have back home, food is delicious and abundant, both boats are top-notch. Oh, and all included. We all have families and no time to plan the details of the trip and Mike and crew took care of everything for us. Our job was to eat, surf 3 sessions a day (about 8hs of surfing every day) and sleep. Tough one. Definitely coming back. Thanks Mike and your awesome team!!!"

- Alex M. - Miami, Florida

“Great Setup & Great Hospitality”

"I felt like my business was sincerely appreciated and all the staff went the extra mile, the whole time, to make sure we were comfortable and having a great time. By the time we left, we felt like we had made new lifetime friends. Forget Popoyo or the other overcrowded spots. Choose Dale Dagger and you won't be disappointed."

“Highly Recommend”

"Just spent 5 days at the surf lodge. Excellent experience. Mike's team is top notch. They have every aspect of a surf trip down to a science. Friendly, efficient, professional, cool, mellow, experts. The food is excellent. The lodge is spotless and very comfortable. The setup is ideal... their boats take you wherever it is breaking best for every session, based on your skill level and the conditions. The people are warm and friendly. Very cool vibe. Can not wait until I get back there. Will definitely stay at Dale Dagger again."

This panga has a brand new 75 HP Yamaha, it will have planty of fuel. All the food you can eat, and fresh juice made from local tropical fruits on board, a gigantic shade to keep you protected from the tropical elements, so what are you waiting for just, think 8 or more people, just 650 Dollars,pp for 7 days and 6 nights, it´s so  Incredably cheap.

     Joes Surf Tours give all day surf, from Nagualapa Bay to Maderas Negras, world class waves, plenty of food and fruit juce water on board.

"Amazing Surfing Vacation in Playa Gigante"

"My sister and I spent a week at Giant’s Foot Surf Camp Nicaragua a little while ago and we cannot stop talking about it. Waking up every day to the waves crashing, drinking our morning coffee in a hammock on the beach, taking advantage of all the unlimited Tonas we could drink – we had such a great experience. The surf guides (Spencer, Kyle, & Diego) are all great. They are not only fun to hang out with but we are beginners and they did a great job picking spots for us that fit our surf experience but were not super crowded. They really try to tailor the experience to your surf level & how much you want to surf."

"Sarf all day, Tonas all night!"

"I just got back from the trip a week ago, was down there with a big group for a week and had a blast!! We had waves and got in the water 3 times everyday. Food was great, beers were cold, rooms were comfortable. This is definitely a real surf camp, you will be very comfortable, for the price its golden, but don't expect the four seasons. Show up ready to surf, bring plenty of sunscreen, be prepared for strong offshore winds, powerful surf and you will have a blast."

"Epic first surf trip"

"A mate recommended GFS to me from his trip a couple of years ago and now I can see why. The swell gradually dropped off during the week I was there but we always managed to get good, fun waves. Kyle and Justin were awesome guides and felt like they were constantly trying to make sure we had the best sessions possible. We hit a range of breaks and they offered just the right amount of guidance/encouragement when necessary. Couldn't have asked for much more from them - thanks lads!"

"Perfect Surf Camp!"

"This place is exactly what you are looking for with a surf camp which is why I keep going back. The kitchen staff is incredible making some of the best food I've ever had, and always keeping the place clean. Having the boat take you to any surf break on the coast is a dream and I have gotten the best waves of my life at the spots they've taken me. You can't beat the fact that the winds are always offshore and there is always some good swell in the summer months. Luke and Christian are the current surf guides and are not only great people but also great surfers and made this trip a blast. The new camp owners Trevor and Tara really care about the camp and have made a ton of improvements to it and they are really fun people to hang out with. Couldn't recommend this place enough."     ~ Richie
