Guanacaste (Flamingo – Playas del Coco) about
The Guanacaste coast in north-west Costa Rica is the busiest area for boat trips on the Pacific side. Catamarans from Playa Flamingo and Potrero run snorkel and sunset trips to the bays to the north, and the rocky Islas Catalinas offshore are a snorkel and dive site. Further north, Islas Murciélago in the marine sector of Santa Rosa National Park are reached by a long boat ride from Playas del Coco; landing on the islands is not allowed. In the dry season (roughly December–April) the Papagayo winds can make the northern routes rough.
