Hermosa means beautiful in Spanish, which is probably
why two beaches in Costa Rica hold this name. Visitors
much choose whether they want a Playa Hermosa Beach on
both the central or northern Pacific coasts of Costa Rica.
While the Playa Hermosa beach that is located on the Central
Pacific Coast is popular with surfers due to its fabulously
consistent surf breaks, it is part of a wildlife refuge
and is not a great place for tourists because it is not
fit for swimming due to the turbulent waters. However,
the Playa Hermosa Beach Costa Rica located on the Northern
Pacific Coast, or Guanacaste
Coast, is a popular tourist destination, with its
crystal clear water and the opportunity to stay at a beach
resort Playa Hermosa.
Located just 20 minutes from Liberia,
Playa Hermosa beach Costa Rica has become known as one
of the most beautiful beaches
in all of Costa Rica. A Playa Hermosa Beach vacation
can easily be catered to anyone's budget. Playa Hermosa
offers budget accommodations, as well as luxury
resorts. A stay at a beach resort Playa Hermosa can
get very expensive, but the accommodations, views, and
amenities are worth the cost.
Whether or not visitors choose to stay at a beach resort,
Playa Hermosa offers a number of beach activities. These
include swimming and surfing
in the crystal clear waters, as well as a number of scuba
diving and snorkeling tours, which are some of the
most popular things to do in Costa Rica. For landlubbers,
horseback riding in surrounding areas is offered, and
Playa Hermosa Beach Costa Rica is close enough to Arenal
National Park and the Tabacon
Hot Springs for a day trip to be worked into a Playa
Hermosa Beach vacation.
