About Playa Hermosa
Located just south of Jacó, Playa Hermosa is a wild, black-sand coastline officially designated as a World Surf Reserve. Famous for its heavy, powerful beach break and deep-water ocean trenches, Hermosa hosts international surf competitions and draws experienced board riders seeking hollow barrels. Swimming is generally unsafe due to intense rip currents, but the dark sand shoreline is popular for watching elite surfing, beachcombing, and watching nesting sea turtles. A tide chart is mandatory for surfing Hermosa safely: incoming mid-to-high tides generate the heavy, hollow barrel setups the break is famous for, whereas extreme low tides cause the heavy surf to close out rapidly over shallow sandbars.
