HERRADURA

A few days ago, we took a trip to Jaco and Herradura - just over an hour up the coast - both large (compared to where we're staying) towns - lots of condominiums and geared towards the American market.
Drove into an enormous gated community called Los Suenos in Herradura - there are gated communities inside the gated community! - complete with a golf course and a marina with billions of dollars with of game fishing boats. It was a cloudy day, so apologies for the "flat" pics.

Looking from the marina back to part of Los Suenos

Pick a boat......

Any takers Des or Terry?

We then drove to the Marriot Hotel and had a look around really beautiful place.

We then drove back into Jaco for some great fish tacos and cold beers. Saw this sign - seems like Jacob is extending his business interests into Costa Rica....

Today we're off inland up a serious mountain pass to a nature reserve, then a few days on the Caribbean coast and then onto Lake Arenal. Wil keep you posted.
