I am about a week away from moving from Wrightsville Beach, NC to Ostional, Cosat Rica. I just graduated from college and in an attempt to escape the realities of corporate life in America and small waves I have decided to make a change. I hardly have any money and will probably need to work some in order to get by. Does anyone know a good way to make a few bucks in Costa Rica without sacraficing adequate travel and surf time?

Good for you!! Do it man I wish I did! don't worry bout the money everything always works itself out anyway! Live the dream and enjoy it while you can!!!
Costa rica I met a dude down there in Tamarindo who was from Panama and was just teaching surfing at Witches Rock surf school and was also having one hell of a time! A little smoke a little drink and a hole lota surf makes for a happy man.
Way To Go Hey I totally understand I did the same. But, instead of costa rico I moved to Puerto Rico right out of the military. After getting told what to do for some many years I really wanted some freedom. So I opened my own store online. But, there are many other ways like for instance what is really good way to live pretty comfortably is selling things like perfumes and fragrances. I did this for a few months and did alright for myself nothing major but alright enough to just surf and not complicate my life with money and responsibilities. Its easy just buy large quantities of perfumes and sell them at a the public markets they have here. You only make about five dollars per sell. But cost of living here is way low. I don't spend more then 800 dollars a month here and that includes housing, food, cost of living, and car payments. Anyway let me know how it goes because the sun is shining, the weather is hot and so are the babes, but most important of all the waves are rockin! _____________________________________________________________________________ If you want to protect your child at night then make sure to tuck them in with twin duvet covers .
The issue with foreigners working in Costa Rica is that it is frowned upon by local immigration and labor laws, however there are ways around it. One way is to start your own business, you can work for yourself, however you are not technically allowed to take away potential employment from locals who could do the job. If you have any hustle in your game you can find a way to help travelers find what they are looking for. Another option if you have the necessary skills is to work remotely as was mentioned in a previous post. However, it sounds to me like you are going primarily to surf and that you are not really interested in working much. Good luck with that!
