More about Carate surfspot

If it’s flat around Matapalo, try Playa Carate, just before the Corcovado National Park, which picks up any S or W swell onto exposed sandbanks near the rivermouth. Won't be epic but offers something when all else is suffering.

Can be rippy in a groundswell and the rain swollen river brings murky water which attracts the toothed locals. Long bumpy 4x4 track from Puerto Jimenez.
