Turquoise waters gently sloping mountains, hiking trail, snorkeling. It's a fun day out. I went with Costa Cat tours. Turtle island is about 45 min out. They take about 50 tourist to Turtle island where you hike, snorkel, and have lunch. Then they bring you back to Jaco. Costa Cat tours also provides snacks & drinks.

A 20 min hike up the ruins of an abandoned restaurant. It's now covered in graffiti, and has some of the best views in Jacó. Entry point to the hike is across from the gas station. 20 min bike ride from Casa Cantone

royal butterfly garden is a small but wonderful space dedicated to eco conservation. Dan, the owner and your guide is a book! He was informative and really engaging. This place is about 25 away and takes about 30 min to an hour to walk through. Great thing to do in the morning right after breakfast.

A very popular park, so don’t be surprised if the lines are long, but there are tons of capuchin monkeys around. It’s fun to watch them steal fruit and pizza from tourist

This private beach is located at the far north end of Jacó beach. You can only get there during low tide. Cross over the estuary and walk about a half mile. You’ll find a a sandy beach that’s very private. If you’re feeling adventurous walk another 35 mins across the rocks and find a small waterfall!

Great selection of Costa Rican craft brews. Really good hamburgers. I recommend the blue cheese and bacon burger. Plenty of places that have plugs to sit and work. Be prepared for a college bar from the 90’s. It’s a vibe.
