En Route South: Playa Avellanas & Playa Negra

Heading south from Tamarindo are several as-yet-undeveloped beaches, most of which are quite popular with surfers. Beyond Tamarindo and Playa Langosta are Playa Avellanas and Playa Negra, both with a few basic cabinas catering to surfers.

While these are currently relatively undeveloped, that will all change in the next couple of years. The large golf, residential, and vacation resort complex of Hacienda Pinilla (www.haciendapinilla.com) sits above Playa Avellanas. Today, they only have residential units and one small hotel. However, a large JW Marriott is under construction and expected to open by 2010.
