Playa Hermosa is a small resort village on one of the most beautiful beaches in Central America--a mile of curiving gray sand, mostly easy waves, warm water, surrounded by large hills extending out into the ocean. Mostly residential, Hermosa features a dozen charming restaurants (most on the beach or with fantastic views) and other small convenience and tourist shops. Nearby is Coco, a bustling, combination of tourist nightlife and local culture, only a ten minute drive or cab ride away. Area activities include zip lines (one within the resort itself!), all kinds of water activities, and day trips for surfing, volcano exploring, birdwatching, whitewater rafting, deep sea fishing, diving, ecotourism, shopping, or pretty much any other warm weather activity you would like. Hermosa is centrally located, and a wonderful base for exploring the Guanacaste region of Costa Rica.
