What’s up, explorers! I’m writing to you from the beating heart of Quepos, where natural beauty surrounds you at every step. Today, I want to talk to you about a gem that often goes unnoticed because it’s in the shadow of its famous sister: Espadilla Sur Beach!
An Unparalleled Journey
Before reaching this beach, a trail awaits you, flanked by lush vegetation and wildlife in the heart of Manuel Antonio National Park. Yes! Mischievous monkeys and curious raccoons are common around here. However, the journey is short, and by the time you realize it, the whisper of the sea will welcome you.
Perfect Location
Espadilla Sur Beach is located between Punta Catedral and Roca Tortuga, practically a neighbor to Manuel Antonio Beach. And you know what? Although most people head to the beach as soon as they enter the park, I would recommend that you take your time, explore, and then enjoy a full day at Espadilla Sur.
Paradise Awaits You
You can’t imagine how relaxing it is to walk on the white sand of Espadilla Sur. And when you sit under the shade of the trees, with the sound of the waves as your soundtrack… Ah! Pure life in its purest form! However, unlike Manuel Antonio Beach, Espadilla Sur has a slightly less intense color in the sea, but it’s equally beautiful.
Respect Above All
Always remember that you’re in a protected environment, so don’t feed the animals or leave trash behind. Nature gives us a lot, and we must take care of it!
How to Get There?
Access to Espadilla Sur is quite easy, with good roads and signage. Oh, and don’t worry about parking; there are several places near the conservation area where you can leave your car.
So, what are you waiting for to discover this wonderful beach? Until next time, adventurers! Keep exploring and uncovering the treasures that Costa Rica has to offer! 🌴🌊🐒.
