costa rica surfing
Many towns and beaches in Costa Rica have the same name. For example, there is a Playa Hermosa in the Province of Guanacaste west of Liberia and two other Playa Hermosas in Puntarenas Province.
There is a Peñas Blancas north-east of Puntarenas and another on the Nicaraguan border. A bus to Naranjo will take you to a town near San José in the Central Valley, whereas a bus to Playa Naranjo will take you to the north-eastern coast of the Nicoya Peninsula.
There are three Pavones, seven San Isidros in the central valley alone and four others large enough to be shown on maps, seven San Ramons and (at last count) eleven San Antonios! Be sure that your destination is correct.
Equipment varies from a few old buses on local routes to luxurious with reclining seats. Long distance buses have overhead racks and storage compartments below but local and short distance buses have little or no room to store bags.
Travel light. Use a soft bag that you can stuff under your seat or carry in your lap. Some international buses, have air-conditioning, toilet facilities, and even movies, but domestic buses do not.
Although old movies might have you think so, no chickens, pigs, or other livestock run up and down the aisles of Costa Rican buses.
Bus drivers often stop at street-side bus stops only when people are getting off or waiting to board. Pull the bell chord, press the buzzer button, or shout "la parada" and walk to the exit at least a hundred meters (about 300 feet) before you plan to get off.
Drivers and ticket sellers usually speak only Spanish and schedules are often not posted and are seldom published, so plan your itinerary and obtain travel information in advance.
When traveling beyond the metropolitan area of San José, buy your tickets in advance. Long distance buses are often full, especially on weekends and holidays.
If you arrive at the station just before departure time, you may find yourself riding a standing, waiting for the next bus, or staying over at a Costa Rica hotels for an unplanned morning departure.
On Holy Thursday and Holy Friday of Holy Week, which may occur near the end of March or in early April, bus service may be reduced on certain routes. Bus service is also reduced during Christmas week. On Christmas Day some bus companies do not run at all.
