The most visited beach communities are Playa Tamarindo, Playa Flamingo, Playa Conchal, Playa Brasilito, Playa Grande and the Gulf of Papagayo. In this area you'll find all the amenities of luxury beach resorts, small family operated hotels, restaurants, bars, discos and casinos.

   Three 18 hole championship Golf Courses, a marina from there you can charter boats for the sheer joy of sportfishing, sailing, diving or a ride on a wetbike. Some of the beaches have excellent breaks for surfing other are serenely for swimming and snorkeling. Take a horseback ride, a tour on quadras or visit the hot springs at the nearby volcanos. Plenty of activities to do and only limited by your imagination.
