Located in Guanacaste, Costa Rica, Ostional is a fun stretch of beach break that offers up fun and rippable peaks for about 3km. The waves here can be challenging and break for up to 100 meters over a sand bottom.

What are the best surf conditions for Ostional?

Gets good between waist-high and double overhead. We recommend riding a longboard if smaller and a shortboard or step-up as the size picks up. This break is suitable for all levels of surfer. The surf here is consistent (7/10) and will always have a crew (6/10). The best winds are from the East. The best swells are from the Northwest, Southwest, and West. Works on a mid to high tide best.

We recommend wearing board shorts or a bikini year-round. Water temperatures range between 29 and 27. See the temperature chart below for more data on this.
