Witch’s Rock Surf Safari (Roca Bruja in Spanish) is a trip that all pro surfers should take during their stay in Guanacaste. This renowned surf break is located at the Santa Rosa National Park. The beach offers you a sandy bottom with left and proper breaks, the best season is through the months of December to March as it has offshore winds, but the place gives you excellent waves throughout the year.
Witch‘s Rock is a world-class surfing spot that allows you to ride unique tubes and fast walls. The best location is in the south of the river, where there are more giant waves.
