Hi All,

Here you go. . . where I went, what I did, what I liked and any bewares.

Costa Rica | Playa Santa Teresa | Playa Guiones | Nicoya Peninsula 

• Playa Santa Teresa is nestled between Playa Hermosa and Playa Carmen. The population of Playa Santa Teresa is a floating 3000 based on the flux of tourists in the dry season

• Time to Go:  Dry Season December - April (I went in early December for 2 weeks)

• Flights International: I like to travel Delta and connect through Lax and down to San Jose (usually a little less expensive than Liberia)

• Flights Regional: Once in country exit the terminal walk outside and follow the sidewalk and signs  to the Domestic terminal.  It is very nice and new and super simple.  I have flown both Sansa Airlines and Green Airways.   These two airlines are very resonable and a great efficient and safe way to hop over to the Nicoya Penninsula as well as other Costa Rica locations.

• Taxi Service:  Once in the Cobano Regional airport grab your luggage from the plane and head through the building and out the other side are a number of taxi services and they can take you the 20 minute ride to Playa Santa Teresa for $40 no matter how many people.

• Beaches:  Ok this is the best part.  There are two main paths through the jungle to the gorgeous beach.  Main beach right across from Eat Street and more north across from House of Somos head down the path to La Lora Beach

• Surf Board Rentals: Kina Sport is where we rented our surf boards from the American owners who are incredibly nice and helpful.  The boards are from his old quiver, super cool.  I had a 9' Takanawbi

• Bicycle & ATValrios Rentals:

$12/daily, $10/weekly, $8/monthly - beach cruiser style with basket and lock.

$75/daily ATV rental, they also have motorcycles

Dining:
