general information

Beach break near the town of cool and idealic town of Cahuita. Offers fairly consistent qulaity peaks that will most likely be uncowded apart from a few locals. Also known as 'Black Beach', the english translation. Not to be confused with the spectacular reef break of the same name in Guanacaste on the Pacific side. Thankfully for the beginner and intermediate surfer, this break is much mellower.
