Plya Hermosa

Enjoy the best waves in beautiful Central America, in Playa Hermosa Jaco, a place known worldwide for its consistent and excellent waves all year round.

Playa Hermosa Jaco

Playa Hermosa is a beautiful, black sand beach with some of the consistently best waves all year round.

Playa Hermosa waves are generally a bit more difficult that those at Playa Jaco, so the beach is a real hard-core surfing paradise.

The whole town’s life centers on the rising and crashing of these gorgeous blue waves.

Playa Jaco is a bit more commercial, and is more appropriate for amateur surfers.

The beach is perfect for relaxing and sunbathing, but don’t forget sunscreen!  The sun here is very close to earth, and it’s easy to spend a whole day having fun before realizing at night that you’re toasted!

There are so many fun activities to do at the beach here, like snorkeling and scuba diving, as well as horseback riding and canopy tours nearby.  Jaco offers fun nightlife and shopping, while Playa Hermosa is more about the surfing, so you get the best of both worlds!

ISA SURF CHAMPIONSHIP COSTA RICA Waves range from 2 to 9 feet and the region has more than 8 different surf points. Playa Hermosa was chosen for hosting the ISA World Surfing 2009 and reelected for next ISA 2011.
