About this route

Nosara sits on a more remote stretch of the Nicoya Peninsula, south of the Papagayo area. The drive south passes through Liberia and Nicoya before heading west to the coast — the final section involves unpaved road for approximately 20 km. This is a popular route for surfers and yoga travelers moving between Guanacaste's northern beaches and Nosara's world-class breaks at Playa Guiones. Our vehicles are equipped for this route year-round. Total distance: ~120 km, approximately 2.5 hours.
