This buzzing beach town, which started out as a small fisherman village, attracts surfers galore. Here, you have a perfect balance of ingredients for a memorable vacation. The beaches are a great place to hang out, and they serve as the town’s gathering place at sunset. The community has a variety of restaurants and plenty of nightlife, and daytime activities include stand-up paddleboarding, kayaking, hiking, and ziplining. You can also visit the nearby Montezuma Waterfall and the Cabo Blanco Nature Reserve, a large forest with a wealth of birds, forest trails, and amazing sea views.

If you’re ready for something different, this is the place to go. San Gerardo de Dota is a little-known getaway in a valley surrounded by mountains. Due to its high altitude, it has a cooler climate. It's also a great place for relaxing and enjoying the peaceful surroundings, and especially good for hiking and birdwatching at the nearby Los Quetzales National Park. The village has a unique Latin American artisan gallery that’s worth a visit, and some of the best coffee in the country. All these factors make San Gerardo de Dota the perfect secret escape.
