Santa Teresa

+ Add a Photo

By Caroline Bennett

Once an off the map fishing village, the long white beaches and quiet shady nooks of Santa Teresa in the southern tip of the Nicoya Peninsula have recently become a trendy traveler hotspot for surfers and sunbathers looking to catch a world class wave, or taste the laidback air of the tropics. Here lush forest meets some of Costa Rica's most pristine beaches, offering nooks of shady refuge from the hot afternoon sun. Grab a board or a book and stay into the evening- Santa Teresa is famous for spectacular sunsets, the magic hour when soft sounds of reggae can be heard piping from nearby cabinas and all gather on the sand for an always colorful show.
