In AT YOUR LEISURE we do not forget that most people who travel to the country dedicate some days to rest at any of the beautiful beaches the country counts on.
                We also realize that not everyone likes the same kind of beaches, so we have made a brief selection with information from those, in our opinion, more important so you can get an idea of the beach variety the country has to offer.
                Some of them are typical tropical resting beaches with luxury hotels. Others are less visited ones, where you can be almost alone.  What you will not find is crowds to disturb your rest.
         
       
      MANUEL ANTONIO: 

      This National Park’s beauty has caused lodging offers to proliferate on the road to the park turning it into one of the most animated beach areas.Getting to know what might be the best of the country’s beaches within the protected areas should be inexcusable.

      		 CONCHAL BEACH: 

      It is considered one of the most beautiful white sand beaches in the country.  There, at the beach itself, a luxurious beach hotel has been built by the Meliá Hotel chains.  Other lodging offers can be found nearby.
      GRANDE BEACH: 

      Long miles of almost deserted beach await during the day for the visitors to this protected area which is an important spot for the egg laying of the great baula sea turtle. There are several comfortable hotels at the beach waiting for the traveler. 

      		PLAYA CARRILLO: 

      Known as the beach of the future.  Lodging is still limited in this handsome place prepared for tourist development though what is missing in Carrillo can be found in Sámara, a nearby beach.  It is mainly a resting site that has an airport and facilities for sailfish fishing.
