Travel Compositor: Nosara

Nosara Costa Rica

There are many beach towns along the Pacific coast of Guanacaste’s Nicoya Peninsula—such as Tamarindo, Playas del Coco, and Samara—but none are as peaceful as Nosara. Known for its laid-back atmosphere and coastlines largely untouched by commercial development, Nosara is famous for surfing and yoga. When you visit Nosara, you’re never far from the beach, which is one of the area’s biggest attractions. Here you’ll find beautiful shorelines that are difficult to match elsewhere in the world, without the feel of overbuilt, mass tourism. Visitors can swim and snorkel in the ocean, but the most popular activity is surfing—especially for experienced surfers looking for consistent waves and reliable conditions.
