Located in Central Puntarenas Province, Costa Rica, Boca Damas is an excellent river mouth that delivers long sections and at times hollow lefts and shorter rippable rights. The waves here are challenging to surf and break for up to 150 meters over a sand bottom. Strong currents and local crocs can be an issue. Best to take a boat from Quepos.
