When we talk about Costa Rica, it’s impossible not to think of its paradisiacal beaches, and when we focus on Quepos, that’s where the charm truly begins! This picturesque town, nestled on the Pacific coast, is not only the gateway to the famous Manuel Antonio National Park but also home to some of the most stunning and less crowded beaches in the country.
The best beaches to visit in Quepos
Manuel Antonio Beach
Beyond its undeniable beauty, it’s the combination of its location in the heart of Manuel Antonio National Park and its rich biodiversity that makes it unique.
South Espadilla Beach
Before reaching this beach, you’ll encounter a trail lined with lush vegetation and wildlife. Yes! Mischievous monkeys and curious raccoons are common around here.
Gemelas Beach
While these beaches may not have that immediate “wow” factor that leaves you speechless like some others in the area, they have something that many busier beaches have lost: serenity.
Puerto Escondido Beach
This beach, although a bit farther from its sister Playa Manuel Antonio, is a constant reminder of the rich biodiversity that our region hosts.
Espadilla Beach
A vast stretch of sand spanning about 3.6 km, mysteriously divided into two: Espadilla Norte and Espadilla Sur, separated by an estuary like a natural passageway.
Biesanz Beach
It’s a tranquil retreat, a hidden sanctuary surrounded by dense green jungle, where the only sound you’ll hear is the ocean’s murmur and the calls of the wildlife.
Playitas Beach
It’s the kind of beach you seek when you want to escape the worldly noise and find yourself surrounded by pure nature.
