Activities in Sámara

Over the past fifteen years, Sámara has grown from a small and sleepy fishing village into a vibrant little town with a unique and distinctive character. Today it is one of Costa Rica’s most welcoming small beach towns set amidst a thriving fishing and farming community.

Sámara's horseshoe-shaped shoreline is famous for its extensive white sandy beach, tropical trees, coral reef, and picturesque island. Sámara is also only minutes away from the panoramic palm-lined Playa Carillo beach.

Sámara is sought for its tropical lifestyle, colorful markets, beachfront bars, diverse restaurants, accredited language school, and friendly people.

Local activities include riding, canopy tours, surfing, rafting, diving, trail biking, ultra-light flights, bird watching, and deep-sea fishing. Volcano and hot springs discovery trips are also available.
