Surf Spots
Costa Rica is a well known and developed surf destination, in particular since featured in "Endless Summer" cult surf movie. The safest country in Central America, Costa Rica has good surf for all levels, from beginners to experienced alike. There are surf spots on both coasts, Caribbean and Pacific, although the later is the most popular one. Warm water and offshore breezes make for great surfing conditions year round - you can leave your wetsuit at home ! On the Pacific Coast, the dry season is from November to April, with offshore wind conditions prevailing. Biggest swells occurs during the rainy season but there are nice waves all year round.

Playa Jaco is a long beach with lefts and rights beach and reef breaks. This area is smaller than Playa Hermosa and a good option for beginners. Best breaks are in front of Cabinas Alice at the south end, in front of Disco in the middle, and in front of Copacabana at the north end.

Further break in the area include:
Playa Escondida, a horseshoe, A-frame reef break with a powerful, hollow left and mellower right. Be aware of low tides as rocks are exposed. Best at mid - high tide with a southwest/west swell. Boat access only from Herradura Bay.
Roca Loca, which breaks in deep water over a reef. It is one of the heaviest spots on the coast offering long, clean rights. Best on a due west swell at low to incoming tide.

Playa Hermosa, a long stretch of beach offering some of the most consistent conditions on the Pacific Coast. A variety of sandbars have formed creating a pounding and tubular beachbreak.
