This is the outside reef in front of the beach of Tamarindo. The wave breaks to the left in front of the uninhabited island. You can hire a boat to take you out or paddle from the south end of the beach.

Don’t underestimate the distance, it takes around 40 minutes to get there.

This wave should be surfed at low tide. Only surf this spot when you know what you are doing! Getting washed over the reef is no fun and you can get seriously injured if you have bad luck.
