Pacific Ocean waves of warm water crash upon the shores of the South Pacific Coast of one of Costa Rica’s top visited vacation destinations, Playa Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica.  Only 10 mins from Quepos, Costa Rica, this jungle beach attaches to Manuel Antonio National Park and offers breath taking views with the site of small islands just off the shores. ​

These warm Costa Rica waters are perfect for enjoying Manuel Antonio water sports while on vacation in Costa Rica, solo or with the family, there are many adventurous activities at the beach in Manuel Antonio to keep you entertained and active.
These Costa Rica waters sports include:  Surf lessons, boogie boarding, paddle boarding, jet skis, parasailing, horseback riding, massage therapists, beach chair rentals for relaxing and more!
 
You will find peace of mind and balance within at the beach!
 
On another level, the beaches in Costa Rica offer many great all natural health benefits and effortlessly just being there will bring you back to self awareness and balanced energy.  Spending a day at the beach in Manuel amongst the happy locals and excited vacationers can clear your mind of all your troubles and rejuvenate your soul.
 
The warm sand loaded with minerals cleansed daily by the salty tides, gentle rains and glowing sun can reactivate the flow of energy within and re-connect and ground you to the earth.  We were not born with shoes on our feet!  Walking barefoot on the ground is a natural way to re-establish a feeling of security and connection to the earth and life itself.
 
The sun nearly shines every day all year long in Manuel Antonio.  Even in rainy season the sun often shines in the morning with only light refreshing rains in late afternoon.  Exposure to the sun in appropriate and measured timeframes has a number of health benefits:

  • Vitamin D production
  • Enhancing mood and energy through the release of endorphins
  • Treating skin diseases, such as psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, and scleroderma. UV radiation also enhances skin barrier functions
  • Melatonin regulation through the "third eye" of the pineal gland photoreceptors (Melatonin, for example, which is synthesized by your pineal gland, is profoundly affected by light and dark, and proper exposure to bright sun during the day is important for maintaining your internal rhythm. Melatonin, as you may recall, is also a potent antioxidant with cancer-fighting properties, so please do not underestimate the importance of daily UV exposure)
  • Synchronizing important biorhythms through sunlight entering your eye and striking your retina
  • Protecting against melanoma and decreasing mortality from it
  • Protecting against and suppressing symptoms of multiple sclerosis
  • Inducing nitric oxide (NO), which helps protect your skin against UV damage and offers cardiovascular protection, promotes wound healing through its antimicrobial effect, and has some anti-cancer activity
  • Regulating body temperature
  • Relieving fibromyalgia pain
 
"Solar ultraviolet (UV) radiation” has been used since ancient times to treat various diseases. This has a scientific background in the fact that a large number of molecules (chromophores) in different layers of the skin interacts with and absorbs UV.
 
Swimming in the ocean in Costa Rica provides clean moist air and flowing salty waters that can help detox and clean our bodies and pores of toxins.  Playing in the light waves at Manuel Antonio beach also reminds us to flow like water, not to resist change and to ride the wave!  Go with the flow!
 
Pura Vida a Costa Rican Spanish saying which translates to pure life, perfectly describes life at the beach in Costa Rica…  See you there!
