What to do and see in Jaco, Province of Puntarenas: The Best Things to do Good for a Rainy Day
The tiny hamlet of Jaco is located in the Pacific Coast province of Puntarenas, Costa Rica. It’s the ultimate hideaway for sun seekers and active travelers, with cinnamon-hued volcanic-sand beaches, lush green rain forest and verdant mountains. Surfers flock here from around the world, but families, and honeymooners also find much to love, thanks to the multitude of beaches, outdoor activities, dining, shopping and nightlife. Explore the Costa Rican rain forest by horseback, learning about the flora and fauna in this impressive eco-system. Take an ATV tour to beaches, remote villages and waterfalls. Try your hand at sport fishing, paragliding, sea kayaking or even bungee jumping. Spend an afternoon at the Pura Vida Gardens and Waterfalls, where you’ll find millions of plants, flowers and orchids from around the world. Zip line through the jungle, play a round of golf or take an aerial tram tour of the rain forest. Expert surfers will want to check out La Roca Loca and Playa Hermosa for a challenge.

As a man who used to cringe at the suggestion of a massage, I'm now a big fan. Warner and his team provide a professional experience. In Jaco, there are more than a few seedy "massage" places; so be careful. Warner and Nazareth Spa provide a REAL massage experience among the sounds of jungle birds and a flowing creek. My wife and I continue to use Nazareth Spa to treat ourselves...because 2020 has created enough stress and anxiety!

I was in Jaco for a couple days and decided to get my butt out of bed each morning and start the day with some workout, I chose Yoga, but I am not buy any means versed in yoga, have only had a handful of classes under my belt, I found Aurora through searches and saw they had a cool location. I went to three classes all taught by instructor Rodin. Classes were great, she helped everyone who was in the class and tailored each class to the needs of her students by asking everyone what they wanted to focus on before the class. The ambiance and the view is great, will def recommend Aurora for anyone in Jaco looking to get their yoga on.
