Manuel Antonio Access |
| |
Continue to travel south after going through Quepos and over the mountain until you reach Manuel Antonio beach. The road parallels the beach for a couple hundred meters, and the only reasonable break is right in the middle of this stretch; right out from the "T" in the road. |

Additional Surfing Infos |
| | It is only good at high tide, which is only about 3 hours a day, so it's usually a bit crowded. The locals may give you the stink eye, but they're all bark and no bite.
Do not go during rainy season (Sept-December?).
