About Nosara

Nosara is a serene coastal town on Costa Rica’s Nicoya Peninsula, known for its beautiful beaches, surfing, and yoga. It maintains a peaceful, natural atmosphere with strict building regulations to protect the environment. Surrounded by jungles, it’s home to wildlife like howler monkeys and exotic birds. Playa Guiones offers great surf, and the town features eco-tourism, wellness centers, and a vibrant expat community. Locals live by the “pura vida” lifestyle, embracing simplicity and nature.

For the upcoming retreat in August, expect a higher chance of rain, but don’t worry—it’s warm and refreshing, making the rain enjoyable for riding! Just remember to pack your rain jacket!
