Father's Day at Playa Blanca

White sand, coconuts, boogie boarding and Nutella for all!  Does life get any better than this?  We celebrated Father's Day and our first weekend of summer vacay with friends at the beach near Jaco.

Directions to get there:  Drive toward Jaco and turn right down toward Playa Mantas two streets past the giant entrance to Punta Leona.  You'll see a little store, a pulperia on your left.   There's a Pop's Ice Cream near the beach, and not much else.  parking is 2-4 bucks.  Once on the beach, go left and climb over the rocks, but come back 1.5- 2 hours before high tide or you'll have to wait!
