Jaco is a top tourist treasure. It’s located in Puntaranas, a place on the Pacific. You can experience legendary surf and nightlife. Check out a club called Le Loft. Orange Pub and Monkey Bar are also great bars to visit. You can also dance the night away at Plankton.

San Jose’s most famous club is Vertigo, known for electronic parties. You can also find Castro’s Bar to hear and dance Latin rhythms.

Puerto Viejo is the place to be for reggae roots music. Johnny’s and Mango’s are the clubs to check out. A small electronic trance music scene is also developing in this area. Look for people with hula hoops blocking the street to find this group.

Tamarindo is the home of great clubs like Aqua and the Crazy Monkey Bar. Wildlife and nightlife are both in abundance here.

Playa del Coco is new on the nightlife scene. It’s not the largest and it doesn’t have the fanciest bars but the quality and company are top notch!
