Danta Beach

This is a must see spot! The beach was amazing, one of our favourites so far. Clear waters and large beach. And las Catalinas is so beautiful, this town is an architectural masterpiece. Parking was no problem.

9:15 a.m., the beach was deserted and the shore was huge! The youngsters in our group had a superb time playing in the soft sand. We all enjoyed swimming out to the raft and bobbing in the waves. Two of us walked to Dantita via the rocks/beach. It was spectacular as well. As the day progressed, the shore slowly disappeared as the tide came in and the waves got bigger. We enjoyed body surfing for quite some time. Take note, there are no public bathrooms. There are several trails you can take for a hike from the public parking area. We paid 3000 CRC to park for the day. This might be one of our favourite beaches along this coast. So nice not to have a pile of people. The villas in the hills give a very European vibe.

Pretty and easy to access. They’ll charge you for Parking, but you can nestle under a tree for some free shade! This being said, if you’re up for it, 1.3km hike down the trail takes you to a way nicer spot… Playa Danita

One of the calmer beaches in north costa rica, beautiful black sand and very calm waves. Beautiful scenery, has a hike you can go on if you want to and a cave as well! "Shopping center" nearby you can walk to, I think they might only sell food though. DO NOT pay to park in the sidewalk of this beach

Cute little village that’s a great spot to see a beautiful sunset. Lots of restaurants. I don’t know if I found the tourists very friendly seemed a bit cold. It was as if we were intruding. Also people drive quite fast around the bend that barely fits two cars.

Beautiful beach. Lovely drive from Playa Grande. Main road in Las Catalinas is under heavy construction and lanes are blocked off. Other than traffic everything about our experience was lovely. Many restaurants strips away from the beach.

Beautiful clear water not many waves great for kids. Small easy hike. There's also another beach adjacent Dantita it's well worth the extra hike or during low tide you can cross over by the rocks.

One of the most beautiful beaches I’ve seen in Guanacaste 😍 The water has this rich turquoise color. You can hike up the mountain and see the gorgeous views pictured here.
