Nicoya Peninsula and the Tempisque Basin Map Print e-mail this info
The Península de Nicoya is one of the most readily identifiable regions of Costa Rica jutting into the Pacific nearly doubling the coastline of the northern region.  Swells arrive on the west facing shores after building over thousands of miles of nearly uninterrupted ocean creating a surfing mecca.  Moving around the east side of the peninsula past Cabo Blanco the water quiets and forms perfect swimming beaches before reaching the mouth of the Río Tempisque and it’s marshes brimming with birds.
