Costa Rica Guanacaste - End of Jan - Best Spot??

This might be old-skool SI Fourume asspect, butt looking for an intro tread. I realize that we can't demand gf / wifey pics in the PC Lite version these daze, so you have it EZ.

Esp since you want Swellies to fork over the 411 for nada.

 

Avellanas, Grande, boat to Witches, Ollie's if it's breaking

 

Playa Grande...close enough to the airport for a short trip!

 

whoooo are you? who,who, who,who! I really want to know!

 

We're also looking into CR but around November for a buddy's 40th. After some hefty research, listen to Imperial and the furthest down i'd suggest from Liberia for that time frame is Playa Negra as a solid base

 

And when you guys all go to CR, don't forget to surf as far into the river mouths as you possibly can. Then grab on to all the logs floating by!! That is where the fun begins!!!!!

 

You're a Bad Man ........... that's Sad a American surfer lost his leg paddling across the river mouth last fall

 

while this tread's up, i'd like to heed some quick 'vice from ya guys. Looking like say at the end of the year to head down there. My buddy who's trying to plan this trip has a neighbor who has a house in Pavones but he's favoring Nicoya peninsula because there are not a lotta breaks by Pavones in case it's not going off. The guy like to go left too, and know it's great just for that but he's looking out for the team i guess. Just seeing if you guys think the same in regards to Pavones. The other thing i considered too was San Jose airport sux (traffic including) rather than Liberia. I think the closest breaks to Pavones i saw were Dominical & Punta Banco

 

Abandonner.

it won't allow for a capital A?

 

No, in the last year there have been at least 5 attacks on surfers. You just are not being told that by your liberal media, therefore my sarcastic post....
The CR government does not want you to know; the media supports that because tourism dollars are needed there...

 

That "A" should be tattooed on her azz like a Tramp Stamp.

 

whoops, I paddled across that river before.

 

I like the ease of Grande from Airport...and if you can time the tides for early morning mid to high for four days, that would be optimal. Not a fan of Avellanas (I have caught it pretty good). Can't remember the name of the wave a bit north of Avellanas (probably a mile or so walking) but there is a slabby left and a right that breaks good too. I don't know, to me with the short time frame, I would just go straight to Grande and surf the tide and maybe slip down to Negra for a day if it works out.
