Papagayo Peninsula
Costa Rica
Papagayo Peninsula is located on the north Pacific coast of Costa Rica in the northwest province of Guanacaste. It is located in the Golfo de Papagayo and was formed by volcanic activity as the Caribbean tectonic plate continuously overrode the Cocos Plate and by subsequent weather erosion. The 15 miles (24 km) at the coastline contains 31 separate beaches. The larger Elena Peninsula Santa to the north protects the waters in the Papagayo Peninsula. Papagayo Peninsula is a popular tourist destination, home to the Four Seasons Resort Costa Rica, which includes an Arnold Palmer Signature Course. The peninsula also includes a small selection of luxury homes and properties with multiple new projects that are being developed in the area. Per government mandate, 70% of the land in the Papagayo Peninsula must remain natural ensuring that the beauty of the land is not lost by overdevelopment.
