What is it about?
Costa Rica - Nosara
When you first arrive in Nosara there is a sense of calm, belonging, and welcoming. Nestled in a quaint town in the Guanacaste Province on the Pacific side of the country, Nosara has become a “mecca” for both the traveling surfer and the traveling yoga enthusiast.
The vibe in and out of the water is so special that words just cannot do it justice. Once you have stayed a night or two in Nosara, you understand why people are continuously drawn back to its shores.
With year-round, excellent surf for all levels of surfers at your fingertips to countless adventurous activities to keep the blood flowing, you too will fall in love with the people, the place, and the vibe of Nosara.
