Costa Rica Guides

Rocky points and sandy coves just south of Tamarindo. Surf on the rocks, and coves made for a swim.

The long surf beach at Nosara, forest behind the sand. People stay gladly for the wave and the trees.

A Caribbean village on the park trail, with a reef you can swim from the sand.

The capital. The center is a pleasure: theater, museums, and the market, a good first or last night.

A Blue Flag beach, marina below and houses on the hill. A calm bay, and a pleasure to swim.

A small town west of the lake, for the blue water at Río Celeste.

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

A village inside the Gandoca-Manzanillo refuge, south of Puerto Viejo. Forest and sea meet at a peaceful end of the road.
