Guanacaste
This gently curving and relatively safe beach with a gentle surf, transparent waters and dry climate, is 2 km. long and is framed by spurs of volcanic rocks and is about 7 km (by road) north of Playa del Coco. At the moment it's quieter and less crowded, although the ongoing development of the so called Papagayo Project beginning at the next beach called Playa Panamá may change this dramatically. Its mayor attractions are its scenic beauty, plentiful sunshine and views including hills with clumps of tropical dry forest, Pelonas islands, Montosa Island and Mala Point on the other side of Culebra Bay.
