The El Jobo Peninsula used to be one of the lesser-known attractions in the northwest corner of Guanacaste Province. 

That is until recently. 

The peninsula is dotted with sleepy Pacific Ocean fishing villages, quiet coves, and secluded beaches. Its location tucked between the Santa Rosa National Park and the border of Nicaragua was too remote for many visitors. 

The recent expansion of the Liberia International Airport and the arrival of big luxury resorts are fast making the region one of the best beach destinations in Costa Rica. And El Jobo Peninsula is no exception.

To the south is the Golfo de Santa Elena. To the north is the Bahia de Salinas. And on the westernmost point is the calm bay of Costa Rica Playa El Jobo.

The Dreams Las Mareas Resort is the peninsula’s most recent arrival. El Jobo Bay’s calm waters and backdrop of rolling hills were attractive features for the 477-room hotel’s location.

Bahia Jobo is less than two hours from Liberia International Airport on the Panamerican Highway. From the highway, the beautiful beaches of El Jobo are less than thirty minutes from La Cruz. La Cruz is the closest service town offering banks, pharmacies, and supermarkets.

Costa Rica El Jobo Beach

Playa El Jobo Costa Rica is one of the prettiest beaches on the peninsula. Rocky outcroppings protect the bay with a golden sand crescent beach in between. Although the Dreams Resort takes up part of the bay, there is still space for visitors to enjoy.

El Jobo’s calm bay is the perfect spot to enjoy watersports. The clear turquoise waters are perfect for swimming, kayaking, SUPs, and snorkelling. Rarely does a weekend pass without visitors enjoying beach activities like horseback riding or an impromptu game of soccer.

Costa Rica’s coastline is public domain, and locals or visitors are allowed to enjoy all of the beautiful tropical beaches. Sharing the peninsula with El Jobo are la Coyotera Beach, Playa Rajada, Playa Copal, and Playa Pochotes. Each is different and worth visiting.
