La Fortuna → Tamarindo
From the rainforest and volcano to Guanacaste's most famous surf beach.
La Fortuna/Arenal to Tamarindo
This transfer links La Fortuna/Arenal with the beach town of Tamarindo in Guanacaste — a classic combination of volcano and Pacific coast in the same trip.
The journey takes around 3 hours and 56 minutes across Costa Rica's northern plains toward the coast. A private transfer avoids the long, multi-stop shuttle routes on this leg.
What to Expect on the Way
You'll cross from the humid lowlands into the drier Guanacaste landscape, with cattle country and open plains before reaching the coast. It's a longer drive, so comfort matters.
