Looking to stay somewhere for about a month. Looking for good food, good beaches, younger crowd, surfing, internet, good bar or two, and did I mention good food? Suggestions anyone? Does this place exist? Any input would be great, thanks in advance/

Barbados for Carib but generally pacific surf better cheaper
www.papagsurf.com CR cheap flights into SJO on spirit.com
www.malpaissurfcamp.com one of my favs...
Witches Rock Surf Camp in www.tamarindo.com more party/surf
In SA www.nexussurf.com Florianopolis awesome 42 perfect
beaches but air visa costs would be way more.

Happy Hunting!

There's great surfing and bars in Cosa Rica. Do you have a budget? Makes a huge difference in what to recommend.

There's some good surfing in Puerto Rico and like Blamona says one of the top surfing spots in the Caribbean is Costa Rica (mainly on the Pacific Coast). Do a google search for "Surfing in Costa Rica" or Surfing in Puerto Rico" and you'll find tons of information.

Nowadays you'll find internet service available in all but the most remote locations and just about everywhere tourists go you'll find bars. That leaves "good food" - for what out is worth we've managed to scope out places serving "good food" almost everywhere we've been. It may not be gourmet fine dining but it's often very tasty local dishes. You'll have to define what you mean by "good food" .

Budget's about 4 thousand. In terms of food as long as there is plenty of sea food and good local cuisine I'm good. Thanks for the replies.

Well, let me change that 2-3 people are going so budget is 8-12 thousand.

Take a look at Panama. Great food (eat corbina every day!!!!), great people, lots of history, culture, nightlife and sports activities.
