Getting Around -- Economy (tel. 877/326-7368 in the U.S. and Canada, or 2582-1246 in Costa Rica) and National (tel. 2242-7878) have offices here. Because demand often outstrips supply, I recommend you reserve a car in advance. You could also rent an ATV from several operators around town, including Iguana Expeditions and Boca Nosara Tours. If you need a taxi, call Gypsy Cab Company (tel) 8302-1903).
Village Layout -- The village of Nosara is about 5km (3 miles) inland from the beach. The small airstrip runs pretty much through the center of town; however, most hotels listed here are on or near the beach itself.
This area was originally conceived and zoned as a primarily residential community. The maze of dirt roads and lack of any single defining thoroughfare can be confusing for first-time visitors. Luckily, a host of hotel and restaurant signs spread around the area help point lost travelers in the direction of their final destination.
