Local's Surf Guide: Discover Playa Langosta

Today we’re going to talk about the beautiful beach that is Playa Langosta, one of Tamarindo's nearby surf gems. And who's better to guide us than local and our surf ambassador, Malakai? Playa Langosta holds a special place in Malakai's heart, and today, he's letting us in on its secrets.
Malakai shares the inside scoop on this beautiful beach, detailing its three primary breaks, typical conditions throughout the year, and the recommended surf levels.
Despite being a short 5-minute drive from Tamarindo, Playa Langosta boasts its own unique wave conditions, setting it apart with a distinct angle different from Tamarindo's.
Just a little reminder: whenever you're exploring Langosta or any unfamiliar break, always approach with respect and a good dose of stoke. 🤙

Hows the crocs? It looks surper fun. What swell direction works best? PURA VIDA🌴

[@WitchsRockSurfCampCR]

Hey there! We're fortunate that crocs aren't much of an issue here. While they do exist in the area, sightings are pretty rare. As for the swell, we're blessed with waves all year round. Ideally, Playa Langosta catches swells best from a SWW direction, ranging between 210° to 270°. Hope that helps!
