About Tamarindo, Costa Rica
Tamarindo is Costa Rica's most famous surf town — a sun-drenched beach village on the Guanacaste Peninsula's Pacific coast where surf culture, pura vida living, and tropical beauty converge. Once a quiet fishing village, Tamarindo has grown into Central America's premier surf destination while maintaining its laid-back Caribbean-meets-California vibe. The town's main surf break, Pico Grande, sits right in front of the beach and offers consistent, beginner-friendly waves thanks to its northwest orientation that picks up swells year-round. The gentle, long-peeling waves created by southwest swells wrapping into the bay make Tamarindo perfect for surf lessons, longboarding, and endless sessions — you can literally walk from your hostel or hotel to the lineup in minutes. Beyond the surf, Tamarindo embodies the Costa Rican spirit of "pura vida" (pure life) with beachfront restaurants serving fresh ceviche and Imperial beers, yoga studios overlooking the ocean, sunset catamaran tours, and the famous Witch's Rock Surf Camp that has introduced thousands to surfing. The town serves as a gateway to world-class breaks like Witch's Rock and Ollie's Point (made famous in "Endless Summer II"), accessible by boat from Tamarindo. With year-round warm water (no wetsuit needed), 300+ days of sunshine, howler monkeys in the trees, and some of the friendliest locals in Central America, Tamarindo attracts everyone from first-time surfers to seasoned wave hunters, digital nomads seeking the surf-work-life balance, and families looking for beach paradise. The golden-sand beaches stretch for miles, backed by palm trees and the rugged beauty of Costa Rica's dry tropical forest. Whether you're paddling out at sunrise, sipping cocktails at sunset, or simply soaking up the infectious energy of beach town life, Tamarindo captures everything people love about surf travel. This poster celebrates the waves, warmth, and pure joy of Costa Rica's most beloved surf destination — a place where time slows down and the ocean always delivers.
