Review:
San Juanillo village is located on the northern Pacific coast of Costa Rica, between Marbella and Ostional. Located along a wide bay, San Juanillo beach provides a natural harbor and has an interesting mix of white and black sand divided by gravel. There are several nice shady spots perfect for an afternoon nap.
The quiet, crystal clear waters of the bay are amazing for swimming. The beach is also exceptionally good for snorkeling, diving and fishing. It is easy to arrange with local fishermen to take you on their boat to see whales, turtles and dolphins. There is a highly respected professional dive operation that will take you out to scuba diving, swim with turtles and enjoy the underwater world.
Central Street, Off of Highway 160, San Juanillo, Guanacaste, Costa Rica
