Nearby Playa Cocles offers beach breaks for more casual surfers looking for good waves without the dangers of Salsa Brava. World-renowned surfers ply the waves of Salsa Brava from December to March looking for steep, powerful swells with world-class barrels. Off-shore, barreling waves form over the shallow reef at Salsa Brava creating Costa Rica's most infamous surf. White sand beaches form the lip of Puerto Viejo's conch shell, a spiraling fusion of Spanish, Afro-Caribbean, Italian, German and American culture exuded from beachside bars, out-door cafes, thatch-roof restaurants and Rasta-dyed tapestries blowing in the breeze outside makeshift souvenir stalls. But the nights are longer: happy hour becomes dinner followed by live music and DJs, beer-pong and pool, dancing and late-night strolls along the beach. The days are long and filled with adventures: world-class surfing, snorkeling, diving, sunbathing and hiking. For many, Puerto Viejo isn't a vacation, it's a lifestyle.
