Playa Potrero Beach Costa Rica
A five-minute walk from Costa Rica's famous Playa Flamingo beach, Playa Potrero beach is a quiet gorgeous bay on the northern Pacific Coast of Guanacaste province, in the Nicoya Peninusula.

Found along Costa Rica’s ‘Gold Coast’, this tropical beach with its warm tranquil waters is an amazing place to hideaway from the hustle of city life. Approximately 7 km north of Playa Brasilito beach, Playa Potrero is just ten minutes from Playa Penca and Playa Prieta, and nearby the fabulous five-star resort, the Melia Conchal.

Want to relax during your Costa Rica travel vacation? Playa Potrero is much quieter than crowded Playa Flamingo or Playa Brasilito. A great place to stay at with plenty of affordable and bargain hotels, cabinas and cheap accommodations. You can also find a few upscale hotels in Playa Potrero. Indulge in a variety of things to do and Costa Rica adventures such as swimming, snorkeling, surfing, scuba diving, sportsfishing, horseback riding and kayaking, or just simply go for a beach stroll or sunbathe along the shore. The sunsets in Potrero are a wonderful sight and should not be missed.

At the northern end of Potrero beach is the tiny fishing community of Potrero. In close proximity to Playa Potrero is a small harbor where you can hire a local Tico fisherman to go Marlin fishing. If you prefer to surf you can arrange short day trips to the Costa Rica surf hot spots of Witches Rock and Playa Naranjo. There are also a number of diving facilities available, jet ski rentals and other watersport equipment available to rent out at the marina.
