Playa Conchal, located on Costa Rica’s Pacific coast in Guanacaste Province, is one of the
country’s most beautiful and unique beaches. Its name comes from the millions of tiny crushed
seashells that make up its white sand, giving the shoreline a sparkling glow under the sun.
The calm turquoise water makes Playa Conchal ideal for swimming, snorkeling, and
paddleboarding. The surrounding area offers luxury resorts, small local eateries, and natural
tranquility, making it a perfect destination for couples and families alike.
