Playa Grande is a small, quiet community hidden within a natural park beside the Pacific Ocean. Here, time is best spent with the tides. Follow a short jungle path close to our hotel and discover Playa Grande's pristine beach.
Our beach is surrounded by a dry, tropical forest protected by Las Baulas National Park. The park consists of six miles of white-sand where leatherback turtles lay their eggs, making it an excellent location for turtle tours.
The nearby salt-water estuary is full of life. We provide opportunities to explore this natural habitat for birds, crocodiles, and monkeys with a fun half-day excursion.
An experienced surfer will love our one-step spot located at the mouth of our ocean entrance. Here, waves are larger and more consistent, but an intermediate surfer can find easier conditions within walking distance.
Surf in Grande is best from December through April, when strong off-shore winds bring optimal swell, but it is possible to surf year round!
Grande is also the perfect "base camp" to explore nearby Roca Bruja, Avellanas, Play Negra, Marbella, Ostional, Nosara, and Camaronal. Start here and ride all Guanacaste waves!
