The abundant wildlife, including sea turtles, and the relaxed pura vida atmosphere make Samara particularly attractive. A wide range of accommodation and local cuisine round off the offer for nature lovers and beach vacationers.

On road 160, which is mostly unpaved, travelers experience dense tropical forests and beautiful beaches such as Nosara and Santa Teresa, which are known for their excellent surfing conditions. The approximately 4 to 5-hour drive allows for numerous photo stops and short explorations before ending in Paquera, where a ferry to Puntarenas can be taken.
Day 6:The journey from Paquera to Orotina in Costa Rica begins with an impressive ferry ride across the Gulf of Nicoya to Puntarenas. After the approximately 1.5-hour crossing, the journey continues on the well-maintained road 27, which leads through lush landscapes and charming little villages. Along the way, travelers enjoy impressive views and the opportunity to sample local delicacies at the rest stops along the way. The total travel time is around 2.5 hours, depending on traffic conditions, and ends back at the starting point. The last night is again spent at the Hotel Iguana Verde in Orotina.
