Nosara, Costa Rica, is unlike anywhere else. This place has a vibe all its own, with experiences you won’t find in other beach towns.

1. Watch Sea Turtles Nest at Ostional
Just 30 minutes north of Nosara, in the Ostional Wildlife Refuge, something incredible happens—the Arribada. Thousands of Olive Ridley sea turtles come ashore to lay their eggs, making this one of the world’s largest nesting sites.

During your stay at Sendero, ask our team if it’s nesting season. Even if it’s not, you might catch baby turtles making their way to the ocean—something you won’t forget.

2. Check Out the Nosara Farmers Market
Every Tuesday, the Nosara Farmers Market (feria) is the place to be. Local vendors sell fresh produce, homemade food, handmade jewelry, art, unique clothing, and more.

It’s a great way to experience Nosara’s laid-back, community-driven culture while picking up something fresh and local.

3. Surf Year-Round
Nosara is one of the best surf spots in Costa Rica, with consistent waves all year long. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned surfer, there’s a wave for you.

Through Chorotegas, our in-house surf school at Sendero, you can learn the basics or refine your skills with video analysis and advanced coaching. With Playa Guiones just steps from the hotel, you’ll be in the perfect spot to surf every day.

4. Tap Into Nosara’s Wellness Scene
Nosara is all about balance—jungle, ocean, and wellness. It’s a place to recharge, with tons of ways to reset your mind and body.

5. Catch an Epic Sunset
Every evening, locals and visitors gather on the beach to watch the sky light up. Nosara sunsets are next-level, with unreal colors reflecting off the waves.
