Costa Rica Guides

A small town at the end of a dirt road, with a beach and waterfalls.

A marina at Herradura, made for sportfishing. Boats, a handsome bay, and hills behind the docks.

An active crater in the park above Alajuela, worth the drive on a clear morning.

A valley town east of Cartago, for the Pacuare and a quieter cone.

A long, quiet beach between Jacó and Quepos, lined with palms and almond trees.

A quiet bay south of Playas del Coco. Morning dives over the rocks are the pleasure of the place.

A boat-in bay on the Osa, for Corcovado and Caño Island. Arriving by boat is half the pleasure.

The largest lowland rainforest on this side, and the way into Corcovado. Worth a night among the trees.
