About Liberia

Liberia on Costa Rica’s Gold Coast is a city filled with the latest amenities and modern conveniences mixed with local culture. World-class shopping and entertainment await in this popular destination. Although it is near the capital city of San Jose, the population is smaller allowing for a more leisurely vacation or new residency.

Escape the crowds in this magnificent Guanacaste location complete with pristine beaches, sparkling waterfalls, volcanoes, and tropical rainforests. Along with excellent shopping and a vivid nightlife, Liberia offers wonder and discovery in the surrounding biodiverse landscape. Urban foodies and nature lovers alike will be thrilled with everything this city has to offer.

In the town center, there is ample opportunity for both hectic activity and peaceful relaxation. Sit in the park and listen to exotic birds or amble along the streets filled with shops and cafes. Ex-pats love Liberia for its churches, museums, and local color. The town center is a wonderful place to meet new friends and exchange information about the best restaurants and lounges.

Traditional culinary delights like Jugo de Cana, freshly made sugar cane juice, are available all over town as are Copos, the local version of a snow cone. Once you taste their delights you’ll be hooked! More cultural displays can be seen during annual festivals such as the July Expo. This is when the region’s annexation in 1824 is commemorated. Discover more historical treasures in The Museum de Guanacaste featuring both national and local exhibits about the abolishment of the military and its after-effects.

Looking to relax on a beach? Liberia has what you’re looking for! Beachcombers from all over the world come here to experience glowing white sands meeting crystal waters.

Volcano hiking, mountain biking, and trekking in a cloud canopy are some of the most popular activities to try.
