    Great, GREAT VIDEO!! I have been in Costa Rica so many times,3 times in Tamarindo! I always tell people that is the only place I always want to come back, the country is a paradise wherever you go and Tamarindo is a wonderful place to visit. It only gets better with time I think. So many good spots to go, great food and great coffee, awesome people. Eneas the place you show at the beginning of the video is really good. If not the first, then the second best pizza I've ever had. Looking forward to return to Tamarindo now.THANK YOU. You rule! Hugs from Honduras.

I appreciate that you covered everything from where to eat in Tamarindo to the Tamarindo Nightlife, making it a comprehensive guide for anyone looking to visit this area in Costa Rica. The Jungle Boat Tour through the Tamarindo Mangrove Estuary looked like a unique experience, and I'm now considering adding it to my bucket list. I also appreciate your perspective on Tamarindo being a "touristy" destination, but still offering something for everyone. Thank you for sharing your travel experience with us!

    Great to see you exploring Tamarindo, Costa Rica! It sounds like you had a fantastic time staying at Tamarindo Backpackers and immersing yourself in the hostel community. It's always a great way to meet new people and get valuable information from experienced travelers. The colorful and fun money in Costa Rica is amazing, and it's great to see that you enjoyed the hostel's amenities like the pool, shared kitchen, and hammocks. Exploring the town on foot seems like the perfect way to experience everything that Tamarindo has to offer, and renting a bike or a mountain bike from Handlebar is an excellent idea. The bustling atmosphere and nightlife make it a perfect destination for adventure-seekers who love to have a good time. I can't wait to see your next video, where you'll be exploring Santa Teresa!

      I stayed at the Diria in the eighties. It was one of the only places to stay. We went down there for a surf vacation in the summer when it was still a fairly sleepy small surf town. It was hard to escape the heat, if we weren't surfing we were in our room playing guitars with the ac booming. Do they still have the "Why Not"s around? I have to say wherever you looked you would see some the most beautiful local women.
