I spent 5 amazing days at Rise Up with 18 classmates during spring break. We were uniformly surprised by how fantastic the trip was!! The Rise Up camp is a great place to relax and unwind from the stress of the world and the staff is incredible. They are equal parts mentors, guides, friends and support staff during your stay...

SAFETY: As I typically travel solo on out of the country trips, I'm always slightly trepidatious at first as to if I chose the right place, but all my worries were squelched when the owner (Phillip) met me at 3 am after my transfer from my flight arrived at the camp. Just that extra touch, instead of being dropped of... More

Awesome people. Great good. Clean and very comfortable little homes. Epic waves. But the best part is definitely the vibe. They just take great care of you and make you feel very comfortable. Rise Up is the perfect mix of surf, mellowness, cocktails & other goodness (think dolphins, fishing, endless beaches and more). Definitely worth every penny and yes I'll... More

We were on a 10-day whirlwind tour of Nicaragua and had the pleasure of spending two days at Rise Up Surf Camp! After taking us on the Cerro Negro ash boarding trip with Bigfoot Hostel the day before (also highly recommended), Hugh and Eddy drove us out to the surf camp. Yes, the road is rough, but that's what keeps... More

My husband and I kicked off our month long honeymoon at Rise Up. It was the perfect start to our surf adventure. One we were able to finally feel like we learned how to surf after years of trying to learn off and on on our own. This really helped the rest of our trip when we were surfing on... More

We had visited in May and decided at the last minute to come back over the Thanksgiving (US) holiday. We also happened to travel on my birthday, so we had extra special reason to celebrate. The staff at Rise Up did not disappoint- they catered to every possible desire of ours and beyond. As the other reviewers state, there is... More

My boyfriend and I recently returned from a week-long stay with Rise Up Surf Tours in Nicaragua. As someone who had never touched a surf board in her life prior to this trip, I was, needless to say, nervous about how much I was going to enjoy this trip. Upon arrival at the airport, Eddy with Greenpathways Tours was there... More

Summary I spent a week at Rise Up in the middle of November (just left about a week ago) and loved every minute of it. I traveled there alone and found exactly what I was hoping for and more. The property is nicely laid out, with a communal hangout spot under the palapas right on the beach. This is the... More
