Vacation Rentals in Coco Beach, Guanacaste, Costa Rica

Playas del Coco (Coco Beach)

Playas del Coco or Coco Beach is located between Playa Hermosa to the North and Playa Ocotal to the South. The town gets
its name from the many Coconut Palms that fill the area. The beach sets nicely in a horseshoe bay with scenic vegetation
covering the rolling hills.

Playas del Coco is a sport and commercial fishing town and a place where surfers can get a boat out to Witch’s Rock, one of the
many famous surfing spots in the country. It has also been known for being a vacation spot for Costa Ricans from inland cities
such as San Jose. However, these days more and more foreigners are coming…and staying. Just a few of the countries
represented in Playas del Coco include: Nicaragua, Canada, United States, France, Germany, Italy, Chili, Argentina, and Peru.

The center of Playas del Coco exudes energy and local flavor. The paved main street runs through town and ends right on the
beach’s edge. Local and international restaurants and bars, colorful shops, and street markets line this lively road. Many
community services are offered in Playas del Coco such as a large supermarket, bank, clinic, and Immigration office.

Now Playas del Coco is slowly transforming from a lazy local fishing town to a major hub of the North Pacific. It is the largest of
the Northern beach towns in area and has the most potential for growth. The beginning development of upscale condo projects,
single family homes, and large commercial centers is proof of this potential. Plans for a marina and dock are also in place.
Playas del Coco is definitely a spot to check out during a visit to Costa Rica.
