Jacó is a sun-splashed beach town where beginners catch their first waves and pros carve with style. Mangrove boat tours, canopy zip-lines, ATV excursions, and world-class fishing charters sit alongside beachfront sodas and lively bars. Whether you're chasing adrenaline or a perfect sunset with sand between your toes, Jacó delivers.

Tortuga Island tour from Jacó

Day Trip

Tortuga Island

A full day on one of Costa Rica's most beautiful islands, just a boat ride from Jacó. White-sand beaches, snorkeling in clear Pacific water, and a catamaran ride back with the sun going down. Most tours include lunch, drinks, and gear. It's the kind of day that makes the rest of the trip feel even better.
Surf lessons at Jacó Beach

On the Water

Surf Lessons

Jacó is one of the best places in Central America to learn to surf. The beach break is forgiving for beginners, and local instructors know exactly where to put you in the water. A two-hour lesson is usually enough to get you standing. Come back the next morning and you'll want to go again.
Zip line above the Jacó canopy

Adrenaline

Canopy Zip Line

The jungle above Jacó runs fast and loud on a zip-line tour. Platforms perched in the canopy, long cables over the treetops, and views down to the Pacific on a clear day. Most operators run half-day tours that pair well with an afternoon at the beach. No experience needed.
ATV tours in Jacó

Off-Road

ATV Tours

Mud tracks, river crossings, and ridge-top views over the Pacific. ATV tours out of Jacó cover terrain you won't reach any other way, from jungle trails to lookout points above the coast. Tours run in small groups with a guide and typically last two to three hours. Bring clothes you don't mind getting dirty.
Waterfall tours near Jacó

Nature

Waterfall Tours

The rainforest around Jacó hides some genuinely beautiful waterfalls, and a guided tour gets you to the ones worth the hike. Expect a short jungle walk, a natural swimming hole, and the kind of quiet that's hard to find closer to town. Best in the morning before the heat builds.
Monkey tours in Jacó

Wildlife

Monkey Tours

White-faced capuchins, howler monkeys, and the occasional squirrel monkey move through the trees around Jacó year-round. A guided wildlife tour puts you in the right spots at the right time, usually early morning or late afternoon when the animals are most active. Sloths, toucans, and iguanas often make an appearance too.

Nos encantó pasar nuestras vacaciones en esta preciosa casa. Tiene todas las comodidades para descansar en la playa. La casa es muy linda y limpia. Está muy bien organizada y decorada. Marybell fue muy amable y me contestó rápidamente mis inquietudes. Definitivamente volvería a esta casa en mis próximas vacaciones.

Absolutely beautiful home nestled into the woods where it’s peaceful and quiet. There is a park with walking trails and a playground 5 minutes away. We spent a lot of time outside on the large deck and enjoyed the beautiful weather.
