Great way to hike off brunch! The trail was very low-key and the beach is beautiful.

It's hard to fully describe the awesomeness of this trip. The location, the camp, the adventures, the people, and the waves were perfection. Phil, who runs the camp, and his staff (a mix of local surfers from Nica and free-spirited transplants) made sure we caught awesome waves, ate lots of delicious food, and made the most of our time in Nica. From morning surf seshes, yoga and hammock naps to afternoon pool parties, volcano boarding, beach-front horseback riding, and boat excursions, my week at RiseUp was the best ever.

Presidio Picnic is like Fort Mason Off the Grid on steroids. So many great food options. Bring a beach towel or picnic blanket and post up for the afternoon on a nice day.
