This is the most beautiful beach I have ever been to. It is so clean at the beach. The national Park does not allow any plastic or food to be brought in so there is no trash. The water as you can see from the photos are so blue!

Park has 2 accesible beaches side by side. They are quiet with almost no waves. There are better beaches in Quepos. Careful of monkeys stealing your small items.

Stunning beach with the most emerald and blue colors in the region. A true gem. Note; no food is permitted in the park and only a personal bottle of water is allowed through the gate. The park closes at 4pm- you are not allowed to exit and re-enter- only once per day. Come prepared to see all the rainforest and white sanded beach has to offer! Monkeys, sloths, Mcaws, snakes and all the others you can imagine. Absolutely gorgeous piece of nature's paradise!

Beach gorgeous . Warm December swim , cloudy with sand so not good for snorkelling - but good swim and soft sand . Good facilities ie shower Loos and snack cafe up the hill. The park wardens stop the swimming at 3 pm - and start to shoo everyone out of the park at that time . Probably the best swim in Manuel Antonio

The beach is beautiful but it is quite a walk down from the entrance. We swam in the waters and loved it, but found Espadillo to be much calmer. Don't leave your items unattended because of the monkeys. Changing rooms are pretty much just a stall so don't expect a rinsing area or mirror to be available.

This is a hidden gem. It’s a gorgeous beach with very clean water and amazing wildlife. It’s about 30 mins of a hike into the park and it’s an easy walk. The swimming closes at 3 pm usually. The facilities are also nice with picnic benches and clean toilets near the beach. Be careful to not disturb the resting iguanas here. Also look out for a lot of hermit crabs and other small species on your way. Sloths and capuchins are also common to see.

This beach was stunningly beautiful. We came here as part of our guided tour of the national park, and it was the perfect place to cool off with a quick swim. The sand is beautifully golden and soft, and the waves were very calm, unlike many Costa Rican beaches that we have been to! The water temperature is perfect, and the view of the cove is gorgeous! Would recommend coming here if visiting Manuel Antonio National Park, but remember the walk is about 20 minutes from the car park. Once there, there are bathrooms and outdoor showers to use. Would thoroughly recommend!

The beach is beautiful but it is quite a walk down from the entrance. I wouldn't come here just to swim but its a nice benefit to the park. Don't leave your items unattended because of the monkeys (they are fearless). Changing rooms are pretty much just a stall so don't expect a rinsing area or mirror to be available.

Very nice beach, big waves, clear water, very soft sand. We did see a lot of monkeys. Didn't bother me but there was a lot of sellers walking down the beach and talking to us trying to sell us stuff.

The beach itself is underrated. One of the best places to take a dip in the ocean. Waves are nice but not too harsh. Good chance to come across some wildlife. There's is also a fresh water faucet.

Had a blast. Went in January and only stayed in the area for a weekend. The beach wasn't too packed and it was kept really clean. We even got to ride on one of those banana boat rides.

The beaches at Manuel Antonio are truly beautiful. Especially the ones accessible in the park.

One of the best looking beaches I have ever been to. The sand and water is crystalline clean. It is usually overcrowded here so I recommend to visit second beach. Or you can go there in the late afternoon, then it is almost empty here. Add photos

Travelled an hour and a half to get here with a bus and became satisfied at the sight of several monkeys jumping around.

What a beautiful time! Bumped into Taylor Negron while he was filming Surf School on the beach!

Best beach in Manuel Antonio.. be careful to not let the folks that set up canopies, gouge you by selling you pizza on the beach. They brought us a table.. and our bill ended up being $225 for 3 pizzas and 6 drinks at most.. lol.. lesson learned. Just ask how much things are. The beach is nice and has lots of activities. I also made a friend with Mr. Jose, the snowcone man. $4/ snow cone..and they hit the spot on a hot day on the beach.. he even let me make shave some ice for snow cones! 🧉🍹
