About Playa Grande
Playa Grande, literally translated from spanish to english, means Large Beach. And you'll see why. This is one seriously large beach.

Playa Grande, the town, is relatively small, like most beach towns in Costa Rica, and has shops and services and restaurants to keep you occupied. But clearly, the most popular attraction of Playa Grande is the surfing. Lots and lots and lots of surfing.
