About this route
From the terminal you drive south through ranch country and head for the coast near Tamarindo. Most of the route is paved, with slower stretches through small towns.
Pinilla is quieter than Tamarindo: a long, wide beach with resort and rental communities set back from the sand. Keep your resort name or exact address handy for the gate.
Your driver takes you to the door of your lodging. If you want groceries or a meal in Tamarindo first, say so and we'll fit the stop in.
What to know before you go
Gated resorts check names at the entrance. Keep your reservation on your phone.
Tamarindo is a short drive away if you need a supermarket. Ask for a stop on the way.
Beach width changes with the tide. Check it before you plan a walk.
Midday is hot. Keep water in the vehicle.
