Nosara
From Wikitravel
North America : Central America : Costa Rica : Guanacaste : Nosara
Nosara is a city in Guanacaste, Costa Rica. This town has access to several great beaches and retains "Blue Flag" status as an environmentally clean area.
[edit] Get in
The easiest way in is via a flight to the Liberia Airport and then renting a (4 wheel drive) car, or taxi to Nosara. Eventually the roads turn to gravel on the way to the beach, and there is one point where you cross a river (minus that bridge thingy).
[edit] Get around
Once in Nosara you really don't need a car to get around, just use the beach as a handrail between places.

[edit][add listing] Do
- MissSky Canapoy tours offers a two hour, 8 point zip-line course. Eventually the course is supposed to terminate in a bar in 'downtown' Nosara. As of April 2008 the course was still under construction.
- Surf. Playa Guiones sports 2-6 ft waves, but getting past the rough stuff can be a lesson in humility. There are several places to rent boards. The cheapest option is to talk to the blond American at the Bar Tucan. He's given a $10/day deal in the past for 9 ft boards to folks he likes.
- Swim. Playa Pelaga is a much better beach for swimming than the others (no deadly rip tide, no silt from the river).
[edit][add listing] Buy
- The Pot Guys will hound some members of your group to buy their pots, which are pretty, but they are, well, pots.
- There's a small touristy street up from the Playa Guiones blue flag on the beach.
[edit][add listing] Eat
- The Guilded Iguana is the cheapest place near the hotels for a bite to eat and a beer, and it's a landmark in the area.
- Olga's in Playa Pelada is a great location right on the beach and decent food.
- Casa Tucan and Casa Romantica have great food.
- Rosie's is a good option for cheap and local food, they serve Arroz con Pollo, Casados and Tortillas
[edit][add listing] Drink
- Most restaurants offer drinks as well. Olga's get's loud after dark
[edit][add listing] Sleep
- Casa Romantica offers air conditioned rooms right on the beach and a great pool.
