Potrero

Home / destination/ potrero

The sleepy fishing village of Potrero is located along Costa Rica’s northwest Pacific coast, facing onto an aquamarine bay fringed by a golden beach. Its exquisite surrounding tropical rainforests shelter a diversity of plant, bird and animal life, and its pristine ocean is rich in fish - in fact, the region is renowned as one of the sport fishing capitals of the world. These waters also offer exceptional snorkelling and scuba diving opportunities, with seasonal resident species including whale sharks, blacktip sharks eagles rays, mantas and humpback whales. Horse riding is extremely popular along the beautiful coast and in the mountainous interior.
