Playa Guiones
Pacific coast near Nosara in Guanacaste province.
Mangroves reflect in the water at the Nosara river mouth. Playa Guiones opens out to the south. Nosara encompasses several coastal sections, each with its own character.
Surf travel: Nosara
Nosara names both the village and its surrounding coastal region. Playa Guiones is the long beach with numerous surfing activities. Your accommodation could occupy different locations within the same region.
I discuss which beach you want at the centre of your daily routine. Your journeys to lessons and the location of your accommodation belong together. You can choose one base rather than changing sections every day.
Playa Nosara has an estuary with mangroves and birdlife. A boat or kayak gives you views along this river landscape. The trip reveals a different habitat from the open surf.
I confirm available outings with a local provider. A nature day can sit between your surfing days. Your preferred activities shape how you discover this coastal region.
Playa Pelada combines pale sand with rock formations. A rocky headland separates this section from Guiones to the south. A beach walk offers different views from those along the open surfing beach.
These coastal sections can support different focuses for your trip. I arrange local journeys according to your base. Beach changes remain a planned addition to your stay.
Ostional beach is known for the synchronised nesting of olive ridley turtles. This event is called an arribada and follows the animals’ natural rhythms. A specific sighting cannot be predicted for your travel dates.
I confirm whether an accompanied observation is offered during your stay. Local guides accompany visits to the refuge. Guiones remains a possible base for your surfing programme independently of that.
I plan your Nosara days between Guiones, the river landscape and your chosen nature outings.
