Witch Rock Costa Rica

Submitted By: Manuel Rivers

Witch Rock is a secluded place situated in the Santa Rosa National Park. You can drive up to the beach if the rains are scanty which is very rare. You would be advised to take either a 4x4 or an all terrain vehicle as the roads are not well maintained. The surf breaks, which are the most attracting quality of this place, are located at about a mile from the beach. The beach is well spread out and you can have a wonderful time there. You can partake in many activities in both the beach and the park. The location is perfect for honeymooners and adventurers alike.
Surfing is All There is
There is no specific time to visit this place as it rains throughout the year. The months of January through April, however, offer some dry weather which makes this time a better time to visit. Since this place is best known for its surfing opportunities, it would be a waste of a visit if you do not enjoy the different waves. If you are a first timer, then being shy will get you nowhere. There are many camps and instructors available where you can get the prerequisite skills to manage on a surf board. You can either get your own equipments or you can purchase it from the shops available over there. The equipments are cheap and as they are given on a rental basis, be careful when handling them. There are many surfing options available. You can either hit the really high tides which are prevalent during the times of December through March. The offshore winds make this time the perfect time to surf. There are many surf camps present where you can meet fellow surfers. These surfers often get together and take hiking trips and surf trips which are adventurous. The locals can always be approached if you have any doubts or questions.
River Rafting and Boating
People who are not the biggest fans of surfing need not worry as Witch Rock is also known for other activities. Early morning and late night swims are the best way to begin and end the day. The water out here is fresher and much more pleasing to swim in than other parts of the coast. River rafting is also a very enjoyable activity that does not charge you much. Since the waters are clear and fast the momentum gained by the raft can be used to have a great time. Boating is another classic option. As you travel along the lovely coast, your eyes will witness a myriad of aquatic and terrestrial life forms, the combination of which is hard to find elsewhere.
Canopy Rides Through the Jungle- feel Like Tarzan
Apart from the water and the beach, you can also explore the land around the beach. There are many thick jungles adjacent to the beach. Land activities that involve fun are trekking, hiking and canopy rides. With the canopy rides here you can imagine what it would feel like to be Tarzan.
