Road Trip to Dominical

Yesterday we got up, got ready, and took a trip to hit the beaches south of Jaco.  The first beach was Hermosa.  It is a beautiful sand beach.  Then came Esterillos, and pretty much the same.  A beautiful white sand beach.  While cruising the back roads...and I mean back roads(a turkey trail), we eventually came to an open area where we got stuck.  Now being from Saskatchewan and used to dealing with snow, it was a breeze to push the car out. 

We saw a few tents camping out on the beach, and also a small motorhome.  This brought back wonderful memories of our travelling days with our motorhome.

The next beach we hit was Matapalo.  We started to see the surfers.  I was beginning to wonder were they all were, since Jaco is a haven for surfers, but we have only seen rookies on the beaches.

Dominical is the beach for the surfers.  It is a small hippy town with bars, restaurants, resident dogs, small shops of all kinds selling their wares, surf shops, and people of all sorts enjoying a day at the beach.













It was a wonderful day but extremely hot.  Eventually, we relented a took a dive into the ocean.  A much needed cool down was needed.
