Playa Hermosa

A black-sand beach surfers cross oceans for

Seven kilometers of volcanic sand and one of the most consistent beach breaks in Central America — five minutes south of Jacó, worlds quieter.

Hosts national surf championships. Best May through November, dawn glass most mornings.

Scarlet macaws in the almond trees, iguanas on the fence posts, whales offshore in season.

A lawn, a hammock, coconut palms, and fifty meters of green between your door and the sand.
