The beach community of Dominical lies where the Central Pacific coast of Costa Rica ends and the Southern Zone begins. Some 45 km (28 miles) south of Quepes/Manuel Antonio, Dominical retains a charming, end-of-the-road surfy vibe.
It's a place where thick jungles meet the pounding Pacific Ocean, home to some of the best surf in the country. Anyone who wants to get off the beaten path and away from some of the more touristy and more-developed beach communities in Costa Rica will find themselves a piece of paradise in Dominical.
