Papagayo Gulf Beach

Golfo de Papagayo is a newly expanding area on the northern pacific coast of Costa Rica. Many large all-inclusive resorts and other exclusive resorts have started to popup in the Papagayo Gulf in the past years. This area is untamed and very beautiful. If you want to get away from people and experience the nature of Costa Rica at its fullest, this is a great area to explore.

Papagayo is located in Guanacaste, close to the Liberia International Airport. Rest and relaxation always go hand in hand in the Gulf of Papagayo, with mesmerizing ocean views and intimate settings and activities, as well as lush tropical greenery at every turn. If you enjoy sunny days, this is your spot. Here you can find large resort developments, as well as small intimate hotels and close proximity to lots of national parks such as Santa Rosa and Rincon de la Vieja.

Traditionally known as a paradise for bird watchers and nature lovers, Papagayo is also a charming experience for those interested in relaxation and fun. Papagayo's beaches comply with most of the requirements upon which a good beach is usually judged. Water quality, views, texture of sand and the limited presence of mosquitoes and other pests are probably the most specified criteria. There is a general agreement that Papagayo's shores rank very well when it comes to these factors.

Generous palm trees rise up from the beaches giving shade to sunbathers. Spectacular sunsets are a regular component in the scenery along the Pacific coastline of the Gulf of Papagayo. From calm waters with great swimming, to the finest sand beaches with magnificent panoramas, Papagayo is a perfect destination to enjoy nature and relax.

The Papagayo Gulf is about three kilometers north of Playa Hermosa in a region slated for tremendous economic growth. It boasts a rich tropical setting overlooking the Pacific and is a development area for exclusive hotels and five star all-inclusive resorts. Stunning views, beautiful beaches, proximity to Pacific National Parks and easy access are among the features that make the Papagayo Gulf region so desirable to investors.

Costa Rica's government is dedicated to sustainable progress in the Papagayo Gulf. This growth will preserve the environment while allowing for increased real estate development and tourism. The Papagayo Tourist Project monitors expansion.
