Interested in taking a girl to the beach for a couple days.
Is Pacific or Caribbean side better?
Do you "pay the daily rate" for all days that they are at the beach with you, or is the beach trip considered "payment"?
TIA for any info
Different opinions on this one. Costa Rica has beautiful beaches wherever you go. I'm from Florida and have also lived in L.A. for 5 years. I don't care for the Pacific Ocean. At least for me, if you're going swimming, the Pacific is much colder, the waves are bigger and difficult to tolerate, and undertows are more frequent and a bigger risk.
If you are just sunbathing, then you have a lot more options on the Pacific side and even though Jaco is in my and others opinion, a hell-hole, they have a lot of hotels and restaurants and shopping, etc. available. South of Jaco is Oso, gorgeous beyond belief. If you want to surf, obviously the Pacific side, and numerous beaches up and down the Pacific side are all gorgeous.
