The little town of Parrita is on the way to the famous Manuel Antonio while sitting in the middle of an African oil palm farm. Palo Seco Beach in Parrita is completely free of tourists and paradise to ourselves.
Parrita itself is surrounded by a number of rivers, including the Damas, Picaritos, Palo Seco, Jicote, Chires and the Parrita. The community’s economy is almost exclusively dedicated to producing African palm oil, an edible plant oil derived from the trees.
Adventure Awaits
Parrita and its surrounding areas are an excellent place to visit for any traveler looking to partake in ecotourism. The nearby Damas estuary mangrove forest is home to a wide variety of animals, including crocodiles, pumas, the coatimundi and Costa Rica’s treasured monkey species.
The Parrita River is another terrific destination for nature-loving tourists, as the Class II and III rapids are a fun adventure for all members of the family. These rapids are ideal for those just learning how to whitewater raft, and can be an exciting way to view some of the marine wildlife and birds in the area, including the giant cranes, ibis, storks and egrets.
Sport fishing is another popular activity for visitors to Parrita, as tuna, marlin, wahoo and snook can all be found in bunches in the nearby Pacific Ocean.
Palo Seco Beach visitor comments.
Beautiful secluded beach, If you want to be alone and relax….go here! The sound of the waves was so relaxing and peaceful. Easy to find with beautiful sunsets. Plenty of parking.
We were blessed with beautiful weather so we walked every morning on long stretches of the beach; ocean breeze, rolling Pacific surf and swaying palms – it does not get better than this! Playa Palo Seco is not on the typical tourist agenda perfect safe get away.
This beach is absolutely stunning and surprising that it’s not populated with commercial properties. The sand being so dark is a beautiful sight within itself. It can get very hot late in the afternoon, so make sure to wear shoes. The best time of day to visit is hands down the sunrises and sunsets. This is by far one of the most romantic beaches on the pacific. The waves are constant and peak at various surf times throughout the day.
