playa manzanillo | Informal Campsite

April 21st, 2024 by RecorriendoLasVenas

Estuvimos una semana aquí. Se siente muy seguro, pueblo muy tranquilo. Durante fin de semana hay movimiento de turistas, luego en la semana es muy tranquilo. Durante el día íbamos a pasar el día a otras playas y a la noche volviamos a este punto.

Small quiet village, the road is not very busy. Ideally located for walking in the reserve. The beach is pleasant and it is possible to snorkel (the seabed is not extraordinary). There are a lot of signs prohibiting camping, however we stayed here for 2 days without being made to comments and when the police passed we had the right to a welcome in Costa Rica and a check. We were there the weekend of the annular eclipse, there was a crazy world! I imagine that in normal times it must be quiet. There are few sandflies but not so much than Punta Uva.

Clean Toilet and shower facilities nearby. 500 colones. Good place to snorkel. Entry to National Park by donation. Great place to hike, snorkel and bird watching. We park near power station next to empty field. Super cool breeze and howler monkeys calls on sunrise.
Cocoloba cafe restaurant nearby has excellent home cooked food at reasonable prices. They also have a physiotherapist who does cocoa scrub and wrap massage, hydrating facial and aromatherapy at $80 for 2 hours. Excellent!

very very busy at weekends! But 99 % leave at 05:00 till 06 p.m. than it's very quiet. no problem with a 7 meter motorhome with front wheel drive.

Looks of course lovely! Tonight we gonna sleep here, in the rain.. during dry season 😁
But I saw the sign “prohibited to camp” in the beginning of the road.. so not sure if it’s allowed now

Same that description says. We stayed here 4 days 3 nights and it was a very good place to stay. Very calm at weekdays, there are some town houses that will sold you water to refill your tank. But if you pay for a shower ask to refill your tank, they will say yes.

Lo mismo que dice la descripción. Estuvimos aquí en la días y 3 noches y fue un muy buen lugar para quedarnos, muy tranquilo entre semana. Hay algunas casas del pueblo que pueden venderle agua para recargar el tanque de agua. Pero si paga por una ducha, pregunte que de seguro lo dejan recargar de ahí también sin pagar de más.

Nice place under coconuts. Different places from this point. Quiet at night

Bathrooms are locked and it appears you need to call someone to use them. I picked up a bunch of garbage and there is tons more in this area. Beaches don’t appear to be maintained for garbage. This is the only place in Costa Rica I have thought was not maintained. Beautiful scenery on the beach though. Ok for wild camping. There are also showers you can pay to use but we haven’t used them.
