Insider Tips: Tamarindo - Hated It!

Tamarindo is not my first choice for great cities in Costa Rica. Costa Rica has many more great beaches to visit that can replace Tamarindo on your itinerary. Skip it! It is a surfer's town I will admit. They have plenty of surf schools in the area along with bars and nightclubs. This is gringo country. Tons of Americans live here so there is no real tico culture here.

Agent Ivory Travel Tip
Bring boots here. The roads are unpaved. It gets extremely muddy during the rainy season which makes it unpleasant to walk around. Also, the mosquito's are mas grande problemo here. Wear long sleeves, pants, hats, socks and repellent! Or better yet, just visit another city!
