Restaurants & Activities in Playa Hermosa

El Velero - Barbeques on Wed & Saturday nights (on the beach) Great lobster but you have to reserve before all the locals do.......inside tip which will cost me!   Good variety of dishes from seafood to steak. One of the best restaurants for a good old "American Breakfast". Great bar to meet the local North American's and a very colorful owner from Hamilton, Ontario. " Mike" the owner is basically the entertainment!

Pescado Loco - Good local Costa Rican food – economical. Ask for Mario (behind El Velero) In the evenings it is a gathering place for locals for drinks. Open until the last person leaves..............I know as I can hear the music until the last person leaves!

La Finesterra - take a 5 min. cab ride. Views to die for and wonderful hosts and food. Great for sunsets and they offer daily specials. Seafood is excellent.

Villa Del Sueno - fine dining  at it's best.  Great food & wine Sylvia & Claude as your hosts. At the south end of the beach. The owners are professional musicians and have "special appearances" from other musicians from North America . You will not want to leave.

 

Gingers - fine dining - bocas from a world class chef .....Martinis, one, two, three, four....stop.  Grey Goose Martinis  are Anne's specialty. Spoil yourself and don’t miss dining here! Reservations are recommended on weekends. 5 minute walk from Condovac

 

 

 

 

 

Aquasport Restaurant  - on the beach 1/2 way down.  Good selection of seafood and local dishes. They also have a gift shop, deli, kayak rentals, small sail boat rentals, snorkeling tours.

The Dragonfly Cafe is located from the first entrance of Playa Hermosa 50 meters north, in the new building called Oficentro Las Torres.
Dragonfly serves freshly made sandwiches, excellent coffee beverages, natural fruit smoothies, and a variety of pastries. Also there is a wide array of international magazines and newspapers available for purchase.


Mini Super Grocery Store & Restaurant – right across from Diving Safaris on the 2nd   beach access. They just opened a little restaurant…nothing fancy but a great place to have a traditional Costa Rican meal….great fried chicken too! There is also a gift shop here.

The Upper Deck is now open in Playa Hermosa.

Activities:

Diving Safaris – on the 2nd beach access offer daily diving, snorkeling, and NEW - Sea Spy's

Aquasport Restaurant  - on the beach 1/2 way down They also have a gift shop, kayak rentals, small sail boat rentals, snorkeling tours.

There are another dozen restaurants and another dozen bars in Playa del Coco…..a 10 minute taxi from Playa Hermosa. A fishing village that also offers grocery stores, bank, post office, Police station and probably the best location for souvenir shopping. Much better than Liberia.

 

There are boats on the beach offering snorkeling, local & deep sea fishing and sightseeing tours. Having sailed and offered daily sailing/snorkeling tours on my own boat for 5 years I am perhaps overly cautious when it comes to water activities as the weather can change quickly here. Just make sure who ever you use has the basic safety equipment as VHF radios and life jackets before boarding.

For land tours….well everyone with a car, van or has been there once is a tour operator. Make sure who ever you use …….are licensed to do tours, have insurance and have some references. The major hotels offer the large tour operators who are safe and legal. They operate on volume with large tour groups.

The beach doesn’t have rip tides and is a safe "Blue Flag" beach. Don’t leave valuables on shore while you swim at any beach or they will quickly disappear.

Have fun and enjoy you stay in Costa Rica. You can always reach Josta at 8-395-6090 if you plan some tours or just need some advice.
