More about Playa Ballena surfspot
Playa Ballena is one of the best beginners waves in the area thanks to gently rolling, long rides. Also check the uncrowded beaches of Piñuela, Ventanas, Tortuga rivermouth or get a boat in Ojochal (or walk) to Terraba rivermouth, a perfect peeling left.
Marino Ballena is a stop on the humpback whales migratory routes, and during the winter months, Oct-Mar, it’s common to see mother whales, their babies, and adult males breeching the surface.
