Costa Rica Beaches – Jacó Adventure & Herradura Relaxation
Jaco and Herradura Beaches: sun, surf, and pura vida with a playful splash
Gold sand, warm ocean, and a soundtrack of crashing waves — Jaco and Herradura are Costa Rica’s twin invitations to turn vacation mode all the way up.
Jaco — the lively beach with a wink
Bustling boardwalk energy: colorful shops, surf schools, beachfront bars, and buzzing nightlife make Jaco the place to see and be seen.
Surf central: consistent breaks for beginners and intermediates; friendly instructors and plenty of rental boards mean you can stand up by lunch and wipe out in style by sunset.
Food and flavor: fresh ceviche, tropical smoothies, and roadside casados (traditional plates) fuel beach days and late-night fiestas alike.
Adventure on tap: zip-line canopy tours, ATV jungles runs, and sportfishing charters are all within easy reach when you need a rush beyond the shoreline.
Herradura — mellow, wide-open, and family-friendly
Wide, crescent beach: calmer waters and long sandy stretches perfect for strolling, sunbathing, or building competitive sandcastles.
Laid-back luxury: upscale resorts and quieter beachfront restaurants offer a more relaxed pace — think sunsets with a cocktail rather than a conga line.
Wildlife watch: keep an eye out for pelicans, frigatebirds, and if you’re lucky, dolphins playing offshore.
Accessible adventures: horse treks, mangrove boat tours, and calm beginner surf spots make Herradura great for families and anyone craving easygoing exploration.
