It has an extension of 2,5 miles of dark grey sandy beach with warm waters and high waves, ideal for surfing, hiking, horseback riding and scuba diving. This beach is characterized by having a very relaxing environment, on any given day you could be one of the very few people or the only one at the beach.<\/p>\n

Junquillal Beach holds the “Bandera Azul Ecol\u00f3gica” (Ecological Blue Flag) an award given by the Costa Rican Government to those beaches and towns that have developed tourist activity that is friendly with the environment. For example, the beach must have satisfactory beach and water quality, access to drinkable water, treatment of water and dumpsters, environmental education, signs and security. Junquillal Beach also has a program to preserve the Leatherback turtle, on which a group of local boys known as the “Baula boys” helps to work on the turtle nursery, take care of the turtle nests at the beach and the bay.<\/p>\n
