Sports & nature
While you may want to just lay on the beach when visiting Playa Flamingo, there are some fun local activities to do as well. Not surprisingly with the Pacific Ocean sparkling offshore, many of them get you out on the water.
Catamaran Cruise
A catamaran cruise is a fun way for people of all ages to enjoy the ocean and see some spectacular views. The entire coastline in Guanacaste is made up of beautiful points and coves. Time for snorkeling and swimming in one of the calmer coves is included. You never know what you might see off the side of the boat. We’ve seen whales, sea turtles, and rays before.
Most catamaran operators offer both a morning and afternoon tour. In the dry season, afternoon tours almost guarantee a spectacular sunset.
Sportfishing and the Flamingo Marina
With deep waters nearby, sheltered bays, and rocky islands, Flamingo is in a perfect spot for some serious sportfishing. In the deep water, many billfish species like blue, black, and striped marlin as well as tuna, mahi-mahi, and other trophies can be caught. Inshore, rooster fish are the sought-after species, but mackerel, jack, and snapper are common too.
The best months for offshore fishing around Flamingo typically coincide with the wetter months (May to November). During this time, the strong winds prevalent in Guanacaste during the dry season are not present.
Jet Ski Rentals and Tours
Another great way to explore some of the coastline is by jet ski. Rentals are available right on Playa Flamingo’s northern end. The smaller waves inside the cove make Flamingo a great spot to zip around and have some fun.

Snorkeling boat Tour
Snorkeling tours can vary in duration, but they typically last a few hours, allowing you ample time to enjoy the underwater world. Most snorkeling tours provide the necessary equipment, including masks, snorkels, fins, and life vests. If you have your own gear and prefer to use it, you can generally bring it along.
Snorkeling tours can be either boat-based or shore-based. Boat-based tours take you to different snorkeling sites, while shore-based tours may involve exploring reefs and coves directly from the beach
Rincón de la Vieja Volcano National Park
Visiting the Rincón de la Vieja Volcano National Park is a popular day trip fromPlaya Flamingo. It’s just over two hours from Playa Flamingo and is definitely worth visiting.
This giant park is home to the largest and most active volcano in Guanacaste with the Rincón de la Vieja Volcano as well as the dormant Santa Maria Volcano. The Rincón de la Vieja Volcano is 600,000 years old and its last large eruption was back in 1998.
Horseback ride
Riding a horse along a beautiful beach is really popular in Playa Flamingo, Costa Rica as well as across the country. It’s a great way to enjoy the beach and view from a totally different perspective!
