Brisa Hennessy is an elite professional surfer and global ambassador for watersports, known for her adventurous lifestyle, athletic excellence, and deep-rooted connection to Costa Rica. Born in the remote coastal jungle of Costa Rica, Hennessy spent her early years living off the grid—without electricity, surrounded by the ocean, and immersed in nature. It was there that her love for surfing, exploration, and wellness first took shape.
Hennessy’s competitive journey began when her family moved to Hawaii, where she honed her skills in world-class waves and discovered her passion for competition. In 2018, she realized a lifelong dream by qualifying for the World Surf League (WSL) Championship Tour, where she continues to rise through the ranks and represent Costa Rica on the global stage.
A WSL Championship Tour surfer, Hennessy is also a two-time ISA World Champion, Pan American Games Gold Medalist, and a two-time Olympian, having proudly represented Costa Rica at both the Tokyo 2020 and Paris 2024 Olympic Games.
Outside of surfing, Hennessy is deeply passionate about fitness, nutrition, and mindful living. A dedicated cook and wellness advocate, she integrates clean eating and holistic health into her training regimen to fuel peak performance and inspire others to live healthier, more balanced lives.
Splitting her time between Fiji, Costa Rica, and a life on the road, Hennessy embodies the spirit of a true water athlete—blending global travel, elite surfing, and an unwavering commitment to watersports and personal growth.
Whether she’s charging in powerful waves, competing on the world’s biggest stages, or sharing healthy recipes with her community, Brisa Hennessy continues to lead by example as a world-class athlete and role model in surfing, fitness, and Costa Rican pride.
