I have not been to either and would like to plan a trip for late November. I'd appreciate any input. I'm a decent surfer but don't charge like I did in my twenties, also I'm bringing my wife.
el sal is mainyl south swells so in november that dies down. c rica gets not only north swells and west but also has a carribean side. if your going with a chick they will like CR a lot more than el sal. el sal is awesome but not with a GF
spot on. costa is a great place to bring the woman along...took my wife there for our honeymoon recently, she had a great time & is already planning a return trip!
