Flat water. Choppy with more then 22 knots. Long, sandy beach. Wide with lots of space. Hermosa is good only from May to October during the rainy season, when the thermal wind blows between 11am to 3pm, only big gear. Definitely the best period to visit Costa Rica and to surf is during the winter time, between December and April. These are the months where the wind reaches its highest average and the sun is guaranteed, specially on the north Pacific beaches. This is also the dry season. During the day it's hot but dry and the nights are cooler. All year around the temperature is between 22 and 34 degrees C°. The water is about 28°C, a shorty is used only some days of the year. Water: Flat, Chop. Features: Rooms, Toilet, Food, Parking. Rider ability: Beginner, Intermediate, Expert.
