Pico Pequeño, the main Tamarindo surf break and all the way down to the river mouth break (El Estero)
TIP: CHECK THE TIDES. Mid to high tide is usually best for Tamarindo Beach — it brings more water over the sandbar, creating smoother, more consistent waves.
Low tide can be great at river mouths like El Estero but watch out for shallow sections and exposed rocks. The best times to hit the surf is several hours before and after high tide.
👉 Use Surfline for tide charts.
Forecasts
Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned surfer, timing is everything when it comes to catching the best waves. Here are some insider tips to help you choose the right moment to hit the water in Tamarindo:
TIP: Look at the Swell Direction
Tamarindo works best with a southwest or west swell (SW/W).
Larger south swells light up spots like Playa Grande and Langosta.
💡 Tip: A 2–4 ft SW swell usually means fun waves for all levels.
TIP: Watch the Wind
Morning sessions (6–10 AM) tend to have light offshore winds = clean, glassy waves.
Afternoons often bring onshore wind, which makes the waves choppy.
✅ Mornings are magic — always!
