Its coast is extensive and in most of time solitary, unspoiled.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For that reason, Guanacaste has a hidden side of its face.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It also smiles, but few know it. These are five extraordinary destinations to discover the less explored side of the &#8216;Pampa&#8217;.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Barrigona beach<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-25676\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adobecar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/PLAYA-BARRIGONA-ADOBE.jpg\" alt=\"PLAYA BARRIGONA\" width=\"680\" height=\"440\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adobecar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/PLAYA-BARRIGONA-ADOBE.jpg 680w, https:\/\/www.adobecar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/PLAYA-BARRIGONA-ADOBE-600x388.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.adobecar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/PLAYA-BARRIGONA-ADOBE-300x194.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.adobecar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/PLAYA-BARRIGONA-ADOBE-24x16.jpg 24w, https:\/\/www.adobecar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/PLAYA-BARRIGONA-ADOBE-36x23.jpg 36w, https:\/\/www.adobecar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/PLAYA-BARRIGONA-ADOBE-48x31.jpg 48w, https:\/\/www.adobecar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/PLAYA-BARRIGONA-ADOBE-150x97.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Located a few miles from the town of Samara, Barrigona can only be reached by a narrow road, sometimes in poor conditions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is better to live the adventure in a 4&#215;4 car and hopefully take the whole morning to enjoy the sea.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is a white sand beach, magical and with incredible waves that capture the surfers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The beach is extensive and is surrounded by small trees that provide shade near the sea.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The landscape offers incredible sunsets, decorated by the surfers who enjoy the coast.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most of the time it looks desolate, especially during rainy season. Don&#8217;t forget to carry your belongings. It is best not to leave any valuables in the car, as the moment you relax you will most likely forget about everything.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you choose visiting Barrigona, I suggest renting a 4WD car at Adobe Rent a Car, as the road looks very damaged in some sections.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A good alternative is the Suzuki Vitara 4WD or the Hyundai Tucson Superior 4WD.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Naranjo beach (Witch Rock or Pe\u00f1a Bruja)<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-25692\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adobecar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/PLAYA-NARANJO-ADOBE.jpg\" alt=\"PLAYA NARANJO ADOBE\" width=\"680\" height=\"440\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adobecar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/PLAYA-NARANJO-ADOBE.jpg 680w, https:\/\/www.adobecar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/PLAYA-NARANJO-ADOBE-600x388.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.adobecar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/PLAYA-NARANJO-ADOBE-300x194.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.adobecar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/PLAYA-NARANJO-ADOBE-24x16.jpg 24w, https:\/\/www.adobecar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/PLAYA-NARANJO-ADOBE-36x23.jpg 36w, https:\/\/www.adobecar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/PLAYA-NARANJO-ADOBE-48x31.jpg 48w, https:\/\/www.adobecar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/PLAYA-NARANJO-ADOBE-150x97.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Naranjo beach is simply immense. It belongs to the Santa Rosa National Park and, at some times of the year, it is impossible to reach the coast due to the poor condition of the road.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Perhaps, the difficulties of access make it a unique place, unknown to most Costa Ricans and protected by the virgin nature itself.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Locals know this place as Pe\u00f1a Bruja and among foreigners it is also called &#8216;Roca Bruja&#8217; (Witch Rock). The nicknames are due to a huge stone located a few meters from the coast.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After almost 10 kilometers along a dirt road and loose stones, you reach this impressive spot, which seems infinite from afar.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Along the way it is possible to see deer and iguanas. At certain times of the year turtles nest their eggs, especially Olive Ridley turtles.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On this beach there are incredible viewpoints, animals and impressive waves for surfing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As is the case in many unspoiled places in Costa Rica, sometimes it is difficult to access the internet, especially in remote coastal areas.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you want to visit &#8216;Pe\u00f1a Bruja&#8217; and need to communicate with your family or friends you can buy the Portable Wi-fi Hotspot, one of the additional services offered by Adobe Rent a Car.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Junquillal Bay beach\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-25712\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adobecar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/PLAYA-BAHIA-JUNQUILLAL-ADOBE.jpg\" alt=\"PLAYA BAHIA JUNQUILLAL ADOBE\" width=\"680\" height=\"440\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adobecar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/PLAYA-BAHIA-JUNQUILLAL-ADOBE.jpg 680w, https:\/\/www.adobecar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/PLAYA-BAHIA-JUNQUILLAL-ADOBE-600x388.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.adobecar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/PLAYA-BAHIA-JUNQUILLAL-ADOBE-300x194.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.adobecar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/PLAYA-BAHIA-JUNQUILLAL-ADOBE-24x16.jpg 24w, https:\/\/www.adobecar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/PLAYA-BAHIA-JUNQUILLAL-ADOBE-36x23.jpg 36w, https:\/\/www.adobecar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/PLAYA-BAHIA-JUNQUILLAL-ADOBE-48x31.jpg 48w, https:\/\/www.adobecar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/PLAYA-BAHIA-JUNQUILLAL-ADOBE-150x97.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Surrounded by a calm and quiet environment, Junquillal Bay beach is part of the national park of the same name.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unlike Barrigona or Naranjo beach, this spot stands out for its gentle swell, which will allow you to swim in the sea without being &#8216;rolled&#8217; by the waves.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In addition to the beach, in this protected area there are picnic areas, camping and beautiful trails that will allow you to go deep into the forest.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is located near La Cruz in Guanacaste, an area that borders Nicaragua. Due to its distance from the capital of Costa Rica, San Jos\u00e9, it is a little visited and unspoiled destination.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This destination can be reached in a 4&#215;4 car, but also in a 4&#215;2. The road to Junquillal Bay National Park is in good conditions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you prefer to reserve a 4&#215;2 car, the Geely GX3 2WD is an excellent alternative, although you could also choose for the Hyundai Creta 2WD.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Penca beach\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-25696\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adobecar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/PLAYA-PENCA-ADOBE.jpg\" alt=\"PLAYA PENCA ADOBE\" width=\"680\" height=\"440\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adobecar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/PLAYA-PENCA-ADOBE.jpg 680w, https:\/\/www.adobecar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/PLAYA-PENCA-ADOBE-600x388.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.adobecar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/PLAYA-PENCA-ADOBE-300x194.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.adobecar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/PLAYA-PENCA-ADOBE-24x16.jpg 24w, https:\/\/www.adobecar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/PLAYA-PENCA-ADOBE-36x23.jpg 36w, https:\/\/www.adobecar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/PLAYA-PENCA-ADOBE-48x31.jpg 48w, https:\/\/www.adobecar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/PLAYA-PENCA-ADOBE-150x97.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Small beach of white sand and turquoise sea, which can only be reached by a path of almost 500 meters.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although it is a tiny spot with barely perceptible waves, it is a special destination because of the color of the sea. When the sun is intense, it reflects the best of the beach, because the ocean looks like a rainbow with different shades of blue and light blue.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is a perfect destination to swim in loneliness, or enjoy the beautiful sunsets. Near the beach, the trees offer shade and allow you to spend the day.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Penca beach is also a nice destination to take a walk with your pet. In case you travel to Costa Rica with your dog, ask Adobe Rent a Car for the car seat cover.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Blanca beach\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-25680\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adobecar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/PLAYA-BLANCA-ADOBE.jpg\" alt=\"PLAYA BLANCA ADOBE\" width=\"680\" height=\"440\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adobecar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/PLAYA-BLANCA-ADOBE.jpg 680w, https:\/\/www.adobecar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/PLAYA-BLANCA-ADOBE-600x388.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.adobecar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/PLAYA-BLANCA-ADOBE-300x194.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.adobecar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/PLAYA-BLANCA-ADOBE-24x16.jpg 24w, https:\/\/www.adobecar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/PLAYA-BLANCA-ADOBE-36x23.jpg 36w, https:\/\/www.adobecar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/PLAYA-BLANCA-ADOBE-48x31.jpg 48w, https:\/\/www.adobecar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/PLAYA-BLANCA-ADOBE-150x97.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hidden in the canton of Santa Cruz, Blanca beach combines the intense colors of the sea with a spot of white sand surrounded by small trees.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is a beautiful beach, with intense sunsets.
