Guanacaste & Drylands

Guanacaste and the northwestern drylands offer a unique ecosystem unlike the rest of Costa Rica. Here you’ll explore tropical dry forests, savannas, and pristine beaches where wildlife thrives under the sun. Spot howler monkeys, iguanas, and hundreds of bird species, or witness sea turtles nesting along the coast. This region combines spectacular landscapes, ranching culture, and easy access to some of the country’s most important national parks and beaches.
