scuba diving in Montezuma
Ok, Costa Rica is not a diving destination like Belize, but there are some nice spots in the northern Nicoya around playa del Coco so I dusted off my mask and brought my PADI license just in case. When I booked the trip to Isla Tortuga they offered me, ...

Hippy Montezuma
We grab breakfast on the corner and look for a new hotel room. The one we were in was really loud. We eventually settle at the place just up the hill. A hammock and porch to call our own. Then we head out to waterfalls. What a hike! The falls are filled ...

Montezuma and Monkeys!

The Routine
... bear, I retire to the shade of either the hotel or my favourite restaurant. I am trying to limit trips to the latter as Costa Rica is not cheap, and it seems far more sensible to make use of the spacious hotel kitchen and the well-stocked local ...
Breakfast with the wildlife

I have been struggling to think how best to begin to describe our wonderful trip, but I just keep coming back to our dogs. If you know us, you already know our devotion to dogs, Jake and Dakota and Max in particular, and how they just fill our hearts and ...
Of hippies, rastas and wildlife
We decided to enjoy our last days in Costa Rica in Montezuma, a small town at the Gulf of Nicoya. This town seems to be heaven for all kinds of people. On the street you see hippies, rastas, standard tourists and a few locals. Almost every second person ...
