The Liberia airport is the gateway to Costa Rica’s north Pacific beaches, mountains and rainforests. Beach towns like Playas del Coco, Hermosa and Papagayo are less 30 minute away. A few more minutes away is Tamarino and Flamingo, among many other beaches.
The north Pacific coastline (Guanacaste province) is ideal for surfing, windsurfing, and is renowned for its excellent sport fishing.
