Playa Hermosa

Introducing Playa Hermosa

If you’re looking for the legendary surf beach, that's near Jacó. For those of you still with us, this Playa Hermosa is a gently curving and tranquil gray-sand beach that stretches for about 2km. Although it’s only 7km (by road) north of Playa del Coco, and development is springing up rapidly along this entire coastline, Hermosa feels less dissipated and more dignified than Coco. The hillsides may be up for sale, but they’re still pretty green and the locals not so jaded.
