Surf Islita

Islita - Costa Rica Islita features a beach break with both right and left waves, set over a sandy bottom. This spot is ideal for beginners looking to enhance their skills, particularly during mid and high tide when the waves can become fun. Caution is advised during high tide due to the potential for larger waves. Accessing Islita requires a 4x4 vehicle from Samara Beach, with two routes available. The beach is relatively secluded, offering a relaxed atmosphere with few surfers, especially during the week. A notable landmark is a stick marking underwater rocks to the east, which should be avoided. While the beach is short, it provides a unique opportunity for novice surfers to practice in a tranquil setting, making it a hidden gem for those willing to make the trek.
