The Nicoya Peninsula provides a wealth of options for travelers. Some of Costa Rica's safest and most picturesque beaches lie along the coast including Conchal and Brasilito in the north, Nosara, Samara, & Carillo in the central, and Mal Pais, Santa Teresa, and Montezuma moving towards the south. Don't miss the Volcano Rincon de la Vieja to the north for a Yellowstone type experience complete with mud pots and small steam geysers.
The Rundown
the good: Best beaches in Costa Rica: Carillo, Nosara, Samara. Top surf breaks in the country. Opportunities to explore empty beaches.
the bad: Poorly planned and managed development has taken its toll in the region. Plenty of condos under construction, but there's no water left.
the beautiful: waves and wildlife. Many beaches carry the prestigious Ecological Blue Flag.
In the running for Costa Rica's best looking beach. Enjoy safe swimming, snorkeling, and kayaking here.
Nosara to Samara
Nosara provides miles of spectacular beaches. Gentle, consistent waves, for all surf levels. Samara is a buzzing community on the rise with calm beaches ideal for swimming, snorkeling, and kayaking.
Montezuma
A funky town with a unique flavor. Popular among backpackers and young travelers. Don't miss the waterfalls!
Located on a hill overlooking the majestic Pacific Ocean this hotel is hidden away within a tropic jungle setting. If you're going to choose luxury in Nicoya, we recommend Punta Islita due to their responsible tourism practices and excellent service. Punta Islita
