I know this is a debatable point. The best beaches could be in Jaco, Tamarindo, Quepos or Puerto Viejo. But I didn't go to any of those places, so for me, the best beach was in Manuel Antonio National Park. Manuel Antonio National Park (Kassandra)
The reasons why are multiple. First off - as you can see, there aren't any other people in this photo. Because there weren't any other people on this beach. Manuel Antonio is a National Park, so you have to pay an entrance fee to get in. Therefore, there aren't a lot of people there. Pay the entrance fee, pack a lunch and stay for the day! But keep an eye on your belongings because these little guys are tricky:

And if this family doesn't eat your PB&J sandwich, guess who else is waiting in the wings to get their hands on it?

Adventure Life took care of everything! All we had to do was show up when we were supposed to, which made our first trip to Costa Rica largely stress-free and incredibly fun. Our trip reps, Hannah and Mariethony, were helpful and responsive, getting back to us by email usually within a few hours. Our accommodations were all great, and we got incredibly blessed with some absolutely stellar guides and drivers.
Our Jungle & Beach trip was an excellent balance of adventure and rest. We got to try out a lot of different activities, including snorkeling, hiking, white water rafting and kayaking, while also partaking of some rest around the pool or by the ocean. We enjoyed seeing and exploring the beautiful Caribbean side of the country.

For our first trip to Costa Rica, Adventure Life designed a tour that meets the interests, ecological and adventure, of our party; but also takes into account our physical limitations sine we are all septuagenarian. We are looking forward to the trip.

COSTA RICA a trip of a life time travelling round this beautiful country. All went like clockwork even when the weather was against us and all transfers seemed to be part of the holiday not a chore. Would definitely use Adventure Life again having previously used them 20 years ago!!

Our Costa Rica trip was amazing! Kassandra planned everything and the excursions, hotels, overall organization were outstanding. Everything worked out smoothly, the excursions guides were knowledgeable allowing us to see so much of the fauna and flora of the country. The hotels were great as well, all in fantastic locations and with beautiful views.
