About Jacó

Jacó is the closest beach town to San José, a long surf beach with a busy strip of restaurants, bars, surf schools and condo towers, and the launch point for Los Sueños marina fishing and Carara National Park's scarlet macaws. It is the party beach of the Central Pacific and a convenient first or last night near SJO.

From SJO airport the drive is about 1.5 hours on the Route 27 toll road and the coastal highway. From Manuel Antonio allow 1.5 hours north; from Liberia Airport or Guanacaste 3.5 to 4 hours. The driver drops you at your hotel or condo.

Good to know before you arrive

Watch for crocodiles from the Tárcoles bridge on the way in; your driver can stop.
Carara National Park, 20 minutes north, is the easiest place to see scarlet macaws.
Weekend nights are loud on the main strip; book a few blocks back for sleep.
