Suggested Itineraries
A lot of people stay in Malpais for the entire time in Costa Rica, especially people who have been to Costa Rica before and know that they do not want to leave this special place. If you are flying into Liberia, it can be quite easy to work your way down to Malpais via Tamarindo, Nosara, or Samara.
One great option if you want to make a loop if you do not have a car is to take the speed boat from Jaco to Montezuma. This is especially feasibile if you are flying into San Jose. If you do have a car you can take the ferry to or from Puntarenas to get to San Jose or the Central Pacific Coast.
