This place is truly stunning. I highly recommend taking a walk along the path to reach Dantita beach. The water is so clear, and the road leading there is in excellent condition.

I have to say, this beach in Guanacaste is truly stunning. The water is a vibrant turquoise color that is simply breathtaking. And if you're up for a hike, you can climb up the nearby mountain and take in some truly gorgeous views, just like the ones in the pictures here.

The crystal-clear water of this beach is a sight to behold, with gentle waves that make it perfect for families with young children. The hike to get here is short and easy, and there's also another beach nearby called Dantita that's definitely worth the extra effort to reach. Alternatively, during low tide, you can cross over to Dantita by navigating through the rocks.

This serene beach is a true haven from the tumultuous waves of the ocean. As soon as you step out of your vehicle, you'll notice the impeccable cleanliness and pristine condition of the sand. While parking can be a bit challenging, with a fee of approximately 5000 CRC, we were fortunate enough to snag a free spot on the street. Overall, this beach is a tranquil paradise that's well worth the visit.

What a sight to behold! Abandon all your troubles and immerse yourself in the rejuvenating atmosphere of Costa Rica's beaches. The Pura Vida way of life offers a tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The ocean is protected from strong winds and rough waves, making it an ideal spot to unwind, no matter what time of day. The cherry on top? Our balcony at the Santarena Hotel provided an unbeatable view. We're already planning our next visit to Las Catalinas, near Playa Danta. Trust us, you won't be disappointed!
