Best at the beach

Immerse yourself in the unlimited sights and sounds of the world-famous Gold Coast. Find a quiet beach of your own to relax upon, or stay at an upscale resort.

Nature's call

Reconnect with nature as you explore Guanacaste's unique tropical dry forests. Wander stunning nature trails, climb up to the canopies, or simply enjoy the landscape.

Many parts of the city are built from stark white volcanic stone giving the city its nickname. Dive into its history and culture at the Guanacaste Museum.

Volcanic views

Experience nature like you've never seen it at Rincón de la Vieja National Park. Centred around its namesake volcano, the park encompasses hot springs, hiking trails and more.
