Coyote Beach Costa Rica: quiet and tranquil, among the many beautiful and remote beaches in Costa Rica.
Coyote beach is a virgin tropical paradise with a long and sandy horseshoe-shaped beach that is surrounded by tall coconut trees and fascinating mangrove estuaries teeming with birds. The waters here are perfect for swimming as the tide remains low most of the time. However, further south near Punta Coyote, the swells are good enough to surf. Here you can also go for horseback rides along the beach, rent a mountain bike or visit the nearby sea turtle rehabilitation program in Caletas beach.
The Coyote beach sunsets are spectacular and there are many opportunities to observe wildlife such as Capuchin and howler monkeys, iguanas, snakes, vultures, pelicans, flamingos, frigate birds, and even anteaters and peccaries. Also, the rocky Punta Coyote has a wide variety of bat colonies to explore.
Most people who stay in Coyote beach usually camp out on the beach. On the other hand, for those who prefer a comfortable bed, San Francisco de Coyote has a few hotels, rooms and cabins to stay at.
Coyote beach is the perfect place for families and tropical nature lovers looking to enjoy and relaxing.
