That’s right just look at this picture I found on flickr:

This is the beach access from the Tamarindo Diara resort in Costa Rica

 

I guess you have your cake and eat it too, you can this reminds me a lot of the resorts around Waikiki beach in Honolulu, even the mountain in the background looks like Diamond  head, There is even a point break nearby called little Hawaii, pretty interesting stuff, but instead of aloha you will find the spirit of Pura Vida.

Pura Vida !!

This is a good time to go surf at Nosara, the waves are not that great today but some few sets coming in looking makeable, I sure love to surf there this time of year, don’t the warm rainy weather, it sure looks way different than in high season

It was a good thing it was not high tide yet.

Not much water got into the motor but the wheels get all the lubrication washed off every time we had to cross the river.

How to cross a river in Costa Rica

 

About to Cross the river on the way to the beach, this time my brother was driving and he decided it was a good idea to stop in the middle of the river, who know what for, it turned out we got stuck and then we needed  someone to pull out out of the river as you can see:

 

Don’t know what he was thinking, we were already pretty late for epic waves, we didnt’ want to be stuck in no stinking river,and thank god there was someone else crossing the river, otherwise it would have taking us hours until the next car would go by.

Moral of the story: if you have to cross a river in a car : GUN IT !!!!!!

Step 1 get something that would last the HUGE pot holes on the road, step 2 go surfing !!!

Something like this will do the trick: (looks small but sits 6)

The Surfing Nosara website (www.surfingnosara.com) posts the surf report everyday with a few pictures as well, its pretty cool to check out the surf report everyday but more cool is to see the people Nosara ripping up the waves.
