About Dominical:

Idyllic village Dominical lies by the Pacific Ocean, surrounded by tropical jungle, waterfalls and natural hot springs. Sandy beach is the entrance to the world class waves, famous among top surfers all around the world. In village it is taken good care of safety, as they have their own police station and lifeguards on beach, which is not significant for other surf location around the country.
