    Info for Malpais & Santa Teresa

    Montezuma Beach, Costa Rica Welcome to the southern Nicoya Peninsula of Costa Rica, which includes the towns of Montezuma, Santa Teresa, Malpais, Tambor, and vicinity. People from all over the world have visited this area to discover the beauty of Central America, and many have ended up discovering themselves. Some have stayed permanently, creating this thriving community of artists, musicians, and creative visionaries. While there are many types of people of all ages, colors, and backgrounds, they all share a common desire to live near a beautiful jungle beach with a sense of purpose and style.

    From the moment you arrive in Malpais, you'll know that you've discovered a very special place, quite unlike other towns in Costa Rica. The area has been compared with Maui 50 years ago, or Santa Cruz, California, but with monkeys and warm water.

    Despite its popularity, the Malpais area still has beautiful beaches that you can often find almost deserted, many beautiful waterfalls hikes, and secret surf spots where you can have a great wave to yourself. This website will serve as your guide to what's best here, and how to find it.

    This is a NON-PROFIT website, created to showcase Malpais and vicinity, which we hope will bring more tourists to the area. Any profits earned from advertising on the website will be given to various local conservation organizations. Local businesses who would like a link or advertisment here can make a donation to one of a variety of local needy organizations and we'll showcase you. Email Geoff for more info.
