Answer 1

Log into the forums at Surfline.com and post in the general section.  Lots of ppl on there have travelled to Costa Rica and can give you good answers and advise on where to start looking.

Btw, do you need another bf?

Answer 2

it depends on where ur going.  most people go to the pacific side that receives south swell best and works best in the summer months.  try to miss the "student summer" season though, and you will have significantly less crowds.  if you want to really make him happy on this trip though, be flexible with planning.  for example, if there is a big carribean storm, and there is swell hitting the other side, be open to a road trip to salsa brava or something.  that is a killer present!

Answer 3

nice gift!  I don't know the answer to your question, but I think you could call any travel agent and ask....
