As a next-door neighbor to the Ostional Wildlife Refuge, Nosara enjoys protection from over-development and that’s just the way locals like it. Their reward is a pristine, natural place to live and thrive for people and hundreds of native species.
Because it is located on the northeast coast of Guanacaste, Nosara is near some of the best beaches in the country. These 5 beaches offer world-class surfing conditions that both professional surfers and beginners can enjoy. If you are new to surfing, there are many surfing instructors in the area offering classes.
If surfing isn’t your thing, you can still frolic in the sparkling waters off the coast. Try snorkeling among hundreds of brightly colored tropical fish or watching dolphins leap. And of course, those sun worshippers won’t be disappointed with Nosara’s endless sandy coastline where relaxation is king.
In the evening, join others on the beach in front of a bonfire and watch sea turtles nesting. Up-close encounters with these amazing creatures are a popular activity with locals and tourists alike.
