01 Introduction

Locals Only

Team Panama

Panama

Safari Surf hires and trains local staff & surf instructors only.

Being a sustainably conscious business we feel not only is this the right policy for us to adhere to but also we have very low staff turnover. This is essential for building a consistent and high quality surf program!
Working together for so many years has created a tight-knit group that are like a second family, rather than just co-workers. It is a welcoming feeling that our guests pick up on right away. The feeling like you are amongst old friends who want nothing but the best for you on your trip. This is the “secret sauce” that sets our program and vacation experiences apart from others!

Trico surf
“Surfing to me is a way of life, a culture, a vibe, a passion. I love meeting new people everyday at my job. I don’t even really think it is a job because I enjoy myself so much. I love to making guests feel at home and happy both in and out of the water!”
