Couple ditch Toronto jobs to open surf resort in Guatemala Toronto Travel Guatemala
was once a very isolated fishing village, but Sarah and Walter noticed the potential of its almost-undiscovered beach, which happened to have incredible waves and very few surfers.
Guatemala itself also has so much to offer, with a rich Mayan history, jungles, crater lakes, volcanoes, and beaches. Vogue even named Guatemala in it’s’ citing its breathtaking landscapes to discover without the masses of tourists, and the ability to connect deeply with Guatemalan people and culture.
The biggest challenge of building a resort in a less-developed area was getting materials for construction and furnishings."There's no Ikea, there's no Home Depot. That forces you to be very creative," Sarah told me. Hidden Wave is more than just a surf camp; besides surfing and exploring the huge uncrowded beach, a national park nearby has a lush mangrove river to explore by paddleboards or canoes. The camp offers daily yoga, hammocks to relax in poolside, and the unique town of El Paredon is a delight to wander through with its laid-back vibe.
"We like the balance of life in the city, having our jobs in Canada and our kids in school there, while also to be able to show them this barefoot life."
