Here is our recommendation for the top 3 most gorgeous beaches in Manuel Antonio.
Playa Espadilla:
Are you planning to bring your family on an adventure trip to Manuel Antonio? If yes, then Playa Espadilla is the most family-friendly beach out there. It’s a large public beach that is situated close to the entrance to Manuel Antonio National Park. So, it is also an excellent place to take an adventure-filled day in the park. The family-friendly characteristics of this beach make it ideal for a wide range of activities such as swimming, surfing, parasailing or just laying around with a good book.
Playa La Mancha:
If you don’t like the crowds of Playa Espadilla, Playa La Mancha is the ideal spot for you. This is known to be one of the quietest & most tranquil Manuel Antonio beaches but you must go during low tide. At this beach you will enjoy the incredible scenery and the ideal spot to sunbathe in absolute peace. This is the ideal beach in Manuel Antonio for newly married couples or anybody else just searching for a little rest & relaxation.
La Playita:
This beach is one of the smallest in Manuel Antonio. Even though it is small, it shouldn’t be missed. Located on the northern end of Playa Espadilla, this small yet relaxing beach is especially popular for more advanced surfers.
This beach used to be a nude beach but the thriving hotel & tourist industry has since changed it to be more family-friendly. One thing to keep in mind is that this beach is only accessible before or after high tide. This entails that it is critical to plan your trip before time..
