Review & FAQ:
Playa Conchal, a true beach paradise, is only about one kilometer south of the small town Brasilito in Guanacaste, on Costa Rica's Pacific coast. This gorgeous pure white stretch of sand is surrounded by tall, swaying palms. The sand is cool underfoot as it is made by tiny crushed shells or conchs, giving the beach its name.
Its shallow waters have an intense turquoise color which is not often found on the Pacific Oceean. This popular beach can get crowded on weekends, but on the work days, as you walk further away from its restaurants and bars you can find deserted spots to truly enjoy the paradise and to swim and snorkel in peace.
