Surfing in Costa Rica During Your Vacation
Ever wanted to surf in crystal blue Caribbean water during your much needed vacation?
Well, here is your chance!
The immaculately maintained beaches in Costa Rica are much less crowded than beaches in Sydney, Hawaii, or Southern California. The sandy stretches of Costa Rica offer plenty of swells, breaks and surf shops to satisfy your everyday needs. Did you know Costa Rica is home to some of the best waves on the planet?
Some locations for a great day of surfing include Puerto Viejo, Westfalia, Portete Beach, Playa Naranjo, Playa Grande, Playa Negra, Boca Barranca, Playa Escondida, Hermosa Beach, Pavones, and Cabo Matapalo.
Did we forget to mention Costa Rica is home to white, tan, dark brown, and black sand? Have you ever seen black sand? Temperatures stay in the mid 80’s to low 90’s, and in the water one only needs a tad bit of sunscreen to prevent sunburns.
Getting off the plane near San Jose you can hop on a bus, rent a car or truck, or find a shuttle to get you to almost anywhere in the country within six hours. Luckily some spots in the far north and south and are not accessible by vehicle so these spots stay relatively uncrowded.
So, what are you waiting for? Come on down to the beautiful beaches of Costa Rica today and escape Winter Storm Thor’s wrath!
