Sunset at Uvita Beach, Puntarenas, Costa Rica. #Adventure
This is the Whales Tail in Costa Rica next to Uvita #AdventurePhotoContest #Adventure
about to board the dive boat in Parque Nacional Marino Ballena to Isla Caño. The diving with Costa Rica Dive and Surf (based out of Dominical) was fantastic even in the rainy season. When we surfaced from our dive there was a humpback whale and her calf only about a mile away. Even that couldn't compete with the early morning view on the beach!
Beautiful sunset in Santa Teresa, Costa Rica. ST is in Puntarenas on the western coast.

Verified traveller

We only had a brief stay here as there were so many signs about thieves on the beach and that made us nervous....but it looked stunning.

Popular places to visit

As we entered Domincal - we pulled off the road, parked in some sandy makeshift lot and followed the setting sun to the sea. Surfers were wrapping up their session as we sat and celebrated the end of the day on washed-up log on the shore. #LifeatExpedia
