Pavones Beach
SJO to Pavones beach or Panamá border area —
Attention surfers: Pavones is home to one of the longest left-handers in the world – the waves go on and on and on. Pavones Beach is an essential stop on any true surfer’s itinerary. When a swell is about to hit, the town itself swells with visitors. On these occasions, it is nearly impossible to find an inexpensive place to stay. Nearly everyone here is blonde, bronzed, and in board shorts. Surfers come to Pavones for months at a time – especially during the wet season, when the swells are best – and the absence of anything but a spattering of cabinas here is a testament to their passion.
Arenal / La Fortuna

Poas Volcano Tour
Poás volcano is a powerful symbol of the geothermal forces that formed Costa Rica. We’ll take you there!
When the mist and clouds part you will see the sulfuric, bubbling, green rain fed lake at the bottom, surrounded by smoke and steam rising from fumaroles. Water from the lake is constantly seeping through cracks in the hot rock, evaporating and building pockets of steam. When the pressure in these pockets exceeds the weight of the water above, the steam breaks through in geysers that rocket up to 820 feet (250 meters) high. Don’t worry about getting a shower though, the crater is 1,050 feet (320 meters) deep. At almost a mile (1.6 km) across it’s also the largest active crater in the world.
Poás is active, but don’t expect to see a full fledged eruption or even any lava flow here. The most recent period of eruptive activity ended in 1954. The last major activity was in 1910 when nearly a million tons of ash was ejected along with an immense column of smoke and steam
