Surfing
Salsa Brava
Near Puerto Viejo, this Caribbean break has the country's biggest surf and is
aptly named - in December waves can get up to 7m.
Pavones
One of the longest left-hand breaks on the planet draws the goofy-footed from
near and far.
Dominical
It's easy to see why so many foreigners show up to surf and can never can
bring themselves to leave.
Playa Grande
Costa Rica's most accessible, reliable break draws hordes - luckily it's so
big that it never seems crowded.
Playa Hermosa
Several beautiful beach breaks for the experienced, just a stone's throw
from Jacó's beginner breaks and postsurf nightlife.
