    I have read Jacó is considered the surfing capital of Costa Rica and Playa Esterillos Este where I took this pic is said to be a surfers' off the beaten path relaxing spot and what about a more relaxing sort of big inner tube instead of a surfing board...? ;-)

    in Jacó more than one shop rents surfing boats but whatever you feel like doing on the beach, do not forget the sun cream: it was one of my very last days in Costa Rica and I succeeded in getting sun-burnt at 9.30 in the morning...

    My roommate and I decided to take surf lessons at Playa Hermosa, a nearby beach. It is geared towards girls, so it was even better...the waves are perfect for beginners. The sets are slow and they are good for long rides.

    Towel, bathing suit, and yourself. Might want to bring a rashguard.
