Along the Coastal highway beyond the Jaco Hermosa area, you will cross the Tusubres River and enter Parrita county. Because of a change in the coastal topography, the Pacific beaches in this region are primarily southern facing.
 

Esterillos Oeste and Este, and the small Playa Bejuco, are tranquil residential communities, with a casual tourist crowd based on surfing. Vacationers will find lodging at small surf camps or luxury vactional rental houses, with very little in the mid-range.

Parrita can also be reached via the Guapinol highway from Puriscal and the inland Talamanca mountains. The town itself straddles the huge Parrita River, and further south you will find the Rio Palo Seco and its estuary, which have formed a barrier island, the Isla Palo Seco.

Tourists find the Class II rapids on the Parrita River to be a fun and no so strenuous whitewater rafting adventure. The Coastal highway continues, and you will leave Parrita for Aguirre canton when you cross the Rio Damas.
