Sightseeing

Guided nature tours at the Boca Nosara from one of my best Tico friends Alan (http://www.experience-nosara.com). He's a great surf paddler & birder! You'll see lots of birds & love his tours.

Essentials

The best and closest grocery store. If you can't cross the Rio Nosara river without going over the Rasta Bridge then this is still the best grocery store and not really that far away.
