What travelers are saying
- Marko SNosara, Costa Rica30 contributionsHands down one of the best, if not THE best, beach that we have hit in Costa Rica, and we’ve been to quite a few. Contained within the scenic, and quite large, Bahia Samara this is an absolute kid favourite, a long shallow fine sand slope leading to some pretty profound surf sure to satisfy even the most discriminating surfing enthusiasts. With shops, restaurants and amenities close by, yet not crowded or busy even directly off of the main “strip”, Playa Samara is a perfect combination of largely empty beach, beautiful scenery, and proximity to amenities.Written May 21, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- random_man21London, UK134 contributionsWe visited Barrigona beach whilst staying near by, and what a beach it is! Hardly anyone around, beautiful white sand and warm sea water! Breathtaking!Written March 24, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- WeerobbieKingston, Canada982 contributionsIf you are looking for that long walk on a pristine beach, where you may encounter only a few people, this is the place!. At low tide, walk across the small river onto the beach and from there you have a few kilometres of beautiful beach and pounding surf. You are occasionally treated to Macaws or shore birds. Warning: surfing only at this beach, swimming is dangerous due to the rips. The beach is about a 30 minute walk from downtown.Written February 8, 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
