Surfing Ollie's Point/Potrero Grande

Break Description
Ollies Point Costa Rica

Ollie's Point is a excellent, fast hollow right point break made famous in "The Endless Summer II." Named after U.S. Military General Oliver North, this is close to the area used to smuggle weapons to the Sandanistas in Nicaragua.

Catching it Good

Like all the spots in the N. Pacific, better on high tide. it's better to try to avoid it during dead low tide if possible.

Getting There
No Beach Access. The only way to get there is to Rent a boat from Playa del Coco.
Reccomended Hotels in the Area

None. We reccomend you stay in Tamarindo, Playa Grande or Playa del Coco, and just take a boat in from Playa Coco for the day.
