Some of the country's nicest beach resorts are located in the dry northern Pacific along the Nicoya Peninsula, where marine life is abundant and temperate weather may be enjoyed throughout the year. Accommodations here are ample depending on the kind of diversion you're looking for. Beach-front mid to upper-range villas and resorts are available along miles and miles of coastline, with easy access to surf, sports fishing, scuba diving, adventure day trips and the enjoyment of sun, sea and splendorous sunsets.
