Have you been looking for a perfect place to spend your vacation? Get ready, Surf Shack Iztapa is here to make your dreams come true! Surf Shack Iztapa is a hostel located in the small town of Iztapa, Guatemala. It's one of the best-kept waves in Guatemala where you can experience local life and empty lineups. Get yourself involved in this surf camp, go on some exciting surfing sessions, and stay in a peaceful accommodation.
The Hostel Surf Shack is a familiar project that came from the necessity of hosting surfers and travelers who come to Iztapa looking for perfect waves. The Hostel is in nature, in front of the river. It eases to go to Iztapa Center in a five-minute walking and to go to the beach crossing through the river (by boat, kayak or stand-up paddle). The Hostel offers five rooms and cabanas, the option of single, double or triple, with private or shared bathroom, kitchen, pier and a shack at the beachside. The clean simple rooms are the three rooms with one double bed and one single bed, one room with two single beds, and one room with three single beds.
This surf camp is situated in the beautiful town of Iztapa, right in the mangroves which are 300 meters away from the beach. Iztapa is a village known mainly because of its black dark sand, rivers, fishing and surfing spots. It is a village with good and friendly people.
There are two different surf spots in Iztapa. The first one is the break at the sea in front of the river mouth and runs to the beach. It is a strong, fast and long right, with two barrels sections. This wave can hold big swells over ten feet for the experienced surfers. The second one is a river wave, generally to leave that changes according to the tide. There is also another right one. It is a fatter wave which is ideal for the beginners or not so for the experienced surfers.
