A smattering of hotels and restaurants dot the shoreline, geared as much towards Costa Ricans on vacation as tourists- fine seafood, Caribbean cuisine, and calypso music are seaside highlights of Playa Bonita, as is tubular surf that surfing legends like the Ronald Brown cut their teeth on. Often overlooked in favor of the more pristine and secluded stretches of beach further south, Playa Bonita has plenty of perks of its own just waiting to be discovered.
