SPECIAL OLYMPICS

ADAPTED SURF

WHAT DO WE DO ?

We support organizations with experience in specific fields of sport, applied to people with disabilities.

Those two organizations, with great missions, are Special Olympics and Adaptive Surfing. Both promote inclusive sport.

HOW ?

We work together, supporting their work through our volunteers and therapists. We also train several athletes from the programs, with real competition objectives, in the most appropriate way thanks to our therapeutic and sports knowledge.

WHERE ?

Special Olympics has programs across the country. We support more specifically the Kayak groups in Turrialba, Quepos and Golfito.

Surf Adaptado is based in Jacó Beach, located in the central Pacific of Costa Rica. On some occasions we help in events in other beaches of the country.
