Tamarindo, located on the Pacific Coast, is a popular vacation destination in Costa Rica. Tamarindo is surrounded by national parks to its north and south, and mountains to its east.

The beach is a long stretch of white sand and warm blue water. The town stretches along the beach and shops and restaurants are within a short distance.

Tamarindo is well known as a surf town with ideal conditions for surfing and windsurfing. Turtle watching is also a popular activity which occurs in the northern part of the bay when Leatherback Turtles come at night to lay their eggs.
