For the past two weeks, a southwest swell of head high to overhead waves have been directly hitting Dominical beach, providing fun waves for all ages, and all levels of experience.

Many surfers worldwide have chosen Dominical as there spot to settle due to the consistency of the waves. The geographic positioning of the coastline allow for the swells to directly hit the beach areas of Dominical allowing for excellent conditions throughout the year, even when it gets flat elsewhere.

The mountainsides come steep up to the coastline, with minimal development, and mostly lush tropical rainforest allowing for the ultimate views and settings from a surfboard in the lineup in Dominical beach.

It is not uncommon to have a pod of playful dolphins join you in the fun jumping and diving in and out of the waves, almost allowing you to touch them as them come thrusting by you while sitting on your board, always keeping a close but safe distance. Incredible creatures!
