Playa Hermosa town

This is a photo of one of the main streets in the town of Playa Hermosa. It is a quiet, Costa Rican beach town. It is much smaller than Tamarindo and does not have the shopping, restaurants and activities of Tamarindo.

Yesterday Zakton of Jakarta Photos left a comment saying that he thought that there is a Hermosa Beach in California as well. Indeed there is. It is in Los Angeles, a little south of LAX Airport, north of Palo Verdes and Long Beach, near to Redondo Beach. It is a nice each community. In California they like to give Spanish names to streets and towns, even for places named by Anglos rather than the Spanish.

Today is Sunday, so we have new photos posted on our Viva la Voyage travel photo site. This week we are showing photos of Norway, a beautiful country.

  1. Thank you for putting a link to my blog, Dave.

    Costa Rica has similar climate as Indonesia. It's wonderful to see a country with a similar environment (in terms of the beaches and trees), but on the other side of the world. It's great that you bring us the photos.

  3. This looks exactly as I imagined, as if you'd taken my dream and photographed it.

  7. It looks a lovely place and I love all the trees, so much greenery. Far different from the main streets of cities and even suburbs.
