Costa Rica's Central Pacific Coast

The popular greeting at the Central Pacific coast is "Pura Vida" (pure life, good life and what a life) and the perfect description of the lifestyle at the coast. Offering for your enjoyment some of the most beautiful beaches in Costa Rica. The climate is humid and ranges from 80-95 degree with a cool breeze from the Sea.

Playa Herradura, Jaco Beach, and Hermosa are a one and half hour drive from San Jose and the closest beaches from the Central Valley. These areas are popular for surfing, nightlife and sports fishing. This is a popular destination for those looking for an upcoming real estate investment.

As you travel south there are undiscovered jewels of Playa Esterillos, Bejuco Beach and Parrita where life is quieter and unhurried. There are some great prices in this area. Just 40 minutes to Quepos provides more shopping, entertainment and of course more beaches.

Quepos/Manuel Antonio is a 20 minute flight from San Jose offering shopping, rainforest canopy tours, 4 tracker adrenaline tours and sport fishing. If you love sunsets Manuel Antonio offers some of the most beautiful sunsets you will see in your lifetime. Manuel Antonio Nature Reserve is the one of the most visited parks in Costa Rica with well maintained hiking trails, birding, animal sightings, rainforests that drop to the water, beaches and picnicking. This community boasts the flavor of cultural diversity and is very popular with Americans and Europeans and offers a quality lifestyle with continuing investment growth Playa Domincal, Matapalo and Uvita are small rural towns offering a quiet, slower paced and unhurried lifestyle. The hills of these Playas offer some incredible ocean view and you will enjoy the cool breeze from the Sea. You will find great waves for surfing competitions here. Dominical has endless beaches to explore and the wonderful Baru Waterfall with many others in close proximity. Horseback riding is a favorite with many to ride through the Jungle and see more exciting splendors. Domincal offers some great investment opportunities.

As you leave Dominical and go east up the rolling mountains to San Isidro De General, you will find some spectacular valley and ocean views. This area is a peaceful agricultural and farming community. Those horse lovers looking for some open range will find this area delightful. In fact one community is named Valley of the Horses which is most appropriate.

San Isidro de General is the second larges city in Costa Rica. You will find a variety of stores of convenience for whatever your needs may be. This is a great mid-country location to use for a base. You can hike the highest mountain range Chirripo or soothe yourself from hiking in the thermal waters at San Gerardo de Rivas. Ride horses through the mountains, explore the jungles and forests to hidden waterfalls. For those who like to climb there are falls to reach and slide down into the pool below.

The weather is 85 degrees during the day and cooling off in the evenings.
