Playa Montezuma
Playa Montezuma is what it’s all about here… the rugged glory and white sand have been bringing adventurous travelers to the Southern Nicoya Peninsula for decades. The beach start just outside of town, to the north, and is the recommended location for swimming and beach-loafing, because of the pollution potential in Montezuma Bay. This beach […]
Playa Organos
One of the best-kept secrets of the Southern Nicoya Peninsula is Playa Organos, which is a 10-15 minute drive from the ferry terminal between Puntarenas and Paquera. The beach is one of the few of the area that’s authentic and natural, which has its upsides and downsides. The upside of course is that there’s a […]
Malpais Tidepool Life – A Rainbow World
A colorful miniature world lives secretly in Malpais, within the tidepools of Mar Azul. Here, a couple dozen tidepools of various sizes offer an incredible array of colorful life, each different than the next. One can’t help but wonder why there’s such diversity from pool to pool, when they’re all very near to each other, […]
The Hidden Tidepools of Mar Azul
At Mar Azul you’ll see a huge rock known as Punta Barigona, and is one of Malpais’s most well-known landmarks. This area holds a secret that few people know about, which is that the rock flats just to the south of Mar Azul, hold a tremendous number of amazing tidepools. How to find it To […]
Beach Cleanup – Where Does All That Trash Come From?
Just about everyone, no matter what country you live in, has had the shock of arriving at what you imagine will be a pristine beach, only to discover that it’s covered with all types of trash. Plastic bottles, flip flops, plastic toys, etc. Any junk that floats will be found washed up on the area’s […]
Romelia Wildlife Refuge
Known in spanish as “Refugio Mixto de Vida Silvestre Romelia” (RMVSR), this reserve is located just behind Playa Grande in Montezuma. Although this inscribed as a national wildlife refuge, it’s still managed by the original family who founded it, so it’s not public property and should be respected as such. So unless you’re invited to […]
Rio Lajas Rivermouth – Los Reyes
The Rio Lajas Rivermouth is yet another super amazing epic beach spot to hang out at. It has a clean river with many pools to swim in, a ton of interesting water birds for birdwatching enthusiasts, a surf spot, and a long beach with almost no one on it. How to find it It’s […]
Playa Los Cedros
One of the most beautiful beaches in the area, Playa los Cedros is located south of the town of Montezuma, about halfway to Cabuya. Not only is it one of the best beaches to just hang out at, but it’s a great surf spot. A left-hand point break, “Cedros” is a beautiful wave, but only […]
Chico’s Bar
Chico’s Bar is an essential part of the Montezuma experience. The bar is right in the middle of town, and is the focus of the town’s nightlife. The small bar somehow manages to serve hundreds of people some nights, who hang out on the street in front, wander to the beach with a beer in […]
Great Stuff
Clandestina Restaurant
My new favorite restaurant, Clandestina is not to be missed by food lovers staying anywhere near to Montezuma. Established in March 2015, Clandestina is the new kid on the block. The Oregon/Tico collaboration is a winner among locals and travelers alike, with artisan craft beers, made onsite by Butterfly Brewing Co. and delicious, exciting […]
