When someone says, "Costa Rica," you probably think, "fantastic beaches!"
Warm waters year-round, an unparalleled tourism infrastructure, and limitless attractions spanning two coasts are the reasons Costa Rica's beaches rank among the best in the world. And since nearly two thirds of Costa Rica's borders are coastline, there are a whole lot of beaches to explore.
Costa Rica has an amazing coastline, which covers more than 1,200 km (746 miles) with roughly 1,000 km winding along the Pacific Coast on the west and 200 km greeting the Caribbean Sea to the east. Our now world famous dramatic and varied beaches boast a dazzling array of features including white, gray, yellow and black sands.
There are four specific beach regions:
* North Pacific
* Central Pacific
* South Pacific
* Caribbean
North Pacific Beaches are famous for having the best beaches, thus caring the name the Gold Coast. The beaches here will satisfy all types of people: lazy loungers to die-hard surfers. Plus, the small wave beaches are great to play around in while the weather remains almost perfect throughout the year.
Central Pacific Beaches are best known for where honeymooners find romance, kids play in mother nature’s playground and surfers can find awesome breaks. It’s super popular because of its proximity to San Jose and everything your heart desires is at your fingertips!
South Pacific Beaches region starts in Playa Dominical and goes all the way down to the Osa Peninsula. And do you know why they are special? It is because of their untouched, pristine beauty! The beaches and the little villages are yet to be fully explored. So hurry up and check them out!
Caribbean Beaches - Cahuita, Puerto Viejo, Punta Uva, Playa Negra and Manzanillo, are the most popular beaches on the Atlantic side (Caribbean). Take the scenic drive down to Manzanillo stopping along the way at all the lonely beaches with great swimming and snorkeling. However, the best way to get around is to rent a bike from Puerto and enjoy a day trip towards Manzallino.
