Playa Hermosa – Costa Ballena de Osa – Costa Rica

Playa Hermosa está ubicada entre Uvita y Dominicalito y es justamente lo que su nombre indica. Es una playa tropical con un escenario increíble, delimitado por un arrecife densamente cubierto de árboles en el norte y por el extremo sur colindando con la desembocadura del Rio Morete, hábitat de todo tipo de fauna y… caimanes.

La playa es muy popular entre los surfistas principiantes o de nivel intermedio, ya que las olas son menos potentes que las de Dominical. Hay corrientes peligrosas por lo cual es recomendable nadar y bañarse siempre acompañados. Es hermoso caminar por esa playa virgen, con vista a la isla de la Viuda.

It is a beautiful experience to walk on this unspoiled beach overlooking the famous Widow Island. If you are hungry there are fruit stands and ceviche stands at the main entrance, almost year round. Bring a hammock, this beach has lots of shade and is a great beach for family fun! Sundays are always busy, so get there early to find a great spot.
