Famous around the world for it's year round surf and tropical climate, Jaco Beach is Costa Rica’s most developed and happening beach town, where you can arrange almost any tour or excursion.
Learn how to surf on the acclaimed beach break in your front yard, plan a round of golf at the nearby Los Suenos resort, arrange a birding tour of neighboring Carara National Park, romp through the jungle with an ATV tour or fly through the rain forest canopy with zip-line excursion, the quintessential Costa Rica experience. Less active guests will love the seaside swimming pools and tranquil beach.
Other local pursuits include world-class sport fishing, for which Costa Rica holds the world record for sailfish and marlin catches in international tournament history, according to National Geographic Traveler, and spectacular bird watching with one tenth of all known bird species in the world living here. Each evening, watch the sunset from the privacy of your ocean view balcony.
