Nicoya Peninsula Vacation Packages

Costa Rica’s Nicoya Peninsula offers visitors a wonderful selection of off the beaten path beach destinations. Whether you are seeking world-class surfing or tropical seclusion, the Nicoya Peninsula is a great choice for your beach vacation!

Looking for off the beaten path beaches and fun in the sun? Look no further than the tropical beaches of the Nicoya Peninsula! Seaside villages like Samara, Carrillo, Montezuma, Santa Teresa, and Tambor aren't on any of the mainstream top 10 lists but are home to some of Costa Rica's most beautiful beaches and unique villages. Samara and Carrillo make a great combination as they are only five minutes apart. Go there for swimming or surfing, international restaurants, souvenir shops, and an authentic Costa Rican vibe. Further south, Montezuma, Santa Teresa, and Tambor round off the southern tip of the Nicoya Peninsula. This isolated area is only accessible by a ferry from Puntarenas or by poorly maintained unpaved backroads. Tambor is a small village with more hotel rooms than local houses. The main beach is best for swimming, while the beach at Tango Mar is better suited for boogie boarding and surfing. Down the coast, Montezuma is a fun town for chilling, relaxing, and just taking it easy. Santa Teresa is just around the corner, providing world class surfing, yoga, and high-end boutique hotels. Most visitors to the Nicoya Beaches stay for three to five nights, combining with destinations such as Arenal Volcano or Monteverde on their Costa Rica vacation. Sound too good to be true? Well, it's not! Reserve your vacation to the Nicoya Peninsula today!
