About Playa Flamingo

Playa Flamingo is a stunning beach destination on Costa Rica’s Pacific coast. It is known for its soft white sand and clear blue waters.

 

Many accommodations are available, ranging from luxury resorts to cozy beachfront rentals. For instance, Margaritaville Beach Resort offers a relaxing stay with ocean views. Additionally, smaller boutique hotels and vacation rentals provide a more private experience.

 

The beach is ideal for swimming, sunbathing, and water sports during the summer months when the waves are small. Wintertime brings larger waves and dangerous rip currents.  Water conditions can vary anytime during the year and there are times when the ocean can become unsafe, even in normally calm areas.  It is important to always check the local conditions before heading out.

 

For delicious seafood, Coco Loco is a must-visit for on the beach dining. Their fresh ceviche and tropical cocktails are local favorites. Similarly, Surf Box serves healthy breakfasts and delicious Costa Rican coffee. For a fine dining experience, Hazel’s offers gourmet dishes and excellent service.

 

Many fun activities can be found nearby. For example, deep-sea fishing and scuba diving are top attractions. In addition, sunset catamaran tours provide a relaxing way to enjoy the ocean. Meanwhile, wildlife lovers can visit the nearby Marino Las Baulas National Park. There, nesting sea turtles can be seen during the right season.

Playa Flamingo Weather

The weather in Playa Flamingo, Costa Rica is divided into two season, green (rainy season) and summer (dry season).

 

The majority of the rain falls between May and November.  Nearly everyday during this time will see some rain, usually in the afternoons between May and July.  However, once August rolls around, all day rains are common until the middle of November.

 

October is by far the rainiest month for any community on the Pacific coast of Costa Rica, including Playa Flamingo.

 

December through April has the driest weather with very little, if any rain.  January and February experience the Papagayo winds that blow hard, sometimes at hurricane force strength from the northeast and out to sea.  During the clear and windy periods, the humidity levels decrease significantly and most of the landscape turns brown.

 

The most uncomfortable month in terms of temperature plus humidity is April.  The temperatures are high, the winds are calm and the heavy rains have not started and therefore provide no cooling relief from the heat.
