  • 1. Croc's Casino

    Only in Jacó would you find a mini Las Vegas, with a casino of slot machines, table games, and free cocktails for gamblers. There's always a game on the big screen and country music playing poolside. For those who've had one too many rounds, you can stay the night at the massive Croc's resort, which is comfortable but devoid of Costa Rican character.

  • 2. Playa Jacó

    This long, palm-lined beach west of town is a pleasant enough spot in the morning but can burn the soles of your feet on a sunny afternoon. Though the gray sand and beachside construction make this spot less attractive than most other Costa Rican beaches, it's a good place to soak up the sun or enjoy a sunset. The beach is popular with surfers for the consistency of its waves, but when the surf is up, swimmers should beware of dangerous rip currents. Smaller waves make this beach ideal for surf lessons or longboarders. Bigger waves are found 5 km (3 miles) south at Playa Hermosa (a blue flag beach). During the rainy months, the ocean here is not very clean. The stretch near Jacó Laguna Resort is less crowded and their tiki bar is a great spot to grab a cocktail at sunset. Amenities: food and drink; toilets (at local restaurants and hotels). Best for: sunsets; surfing.
