Playa Conchal, Playa Conchal

A beautiful beach which is more quiet and relaxed than more glamorous Tamarindo neighbor. Need to drive few hundred meters on unpaved road but not a major issue even with a basic car. There is a kind of informal parking with the self-appointed attendant who will guide where to park and will "watch" your car for 500 colones. The area near the parking is a little more crowded, there are some stalls with drinks and souvenirs. If are you not lazy, the best is t walk some 300-400 meters and than you to get to a serene area with very few people around, trees coming almost all the way to the water and a beautiful unspoiled beach. The water is much quieter compared to many other beaches around too, so it's good for swimming

The best one in the area. Not recomended for small kids.

Beautiful beach with options to rent chairs and shade from locals. One of the nicest beaches in Guanacaste.

It’s a beautiful beach!!! The sand is a little Shelly—hence the name of the beach (conchal=seashell in Spanish) but is not hard to walk on and you can find soft spots to sit on. The water is clear and calm, minimal waves - great for kids. You enter through Brasilito beach. You can rent chairs, umbrellas, a tent, and do water sports there. We were there on a Tuesday and it was not busy. Definitely recommend!

One of the best beaches in Guanacaste Cista Rica. It's truly a hidden gem. Its gets a bit busy during the weekends with the locals but during the weeks it's really quiet. You could rent a jet ski here for $80 for the hour and the water is very nice. When the tide is high this beach is good for kids since its shallow for a good distance but if the tide is low then shallow part is much smaller. In my opinion after visiting 7 beaches in the Pacific coast of costa rica I think this is the most beautiful one.
