Welcome to Las Catalinas, our beautiful car-free town nestled on the Guanacaste coast. Here, you can leave the car behind and explore everything on foot, from the Mediterranean-inspired plazas to the golden sands of Playa Danta and Playa Dantita. Spend your days hiking or biking the trails that wind through the surrounding tropical dry forest, offering incredible ocean views, or get out on the water for some kayaking and paddleboarding in our calm bay. It’s a place built for connection and outdoor living, offering a peaceful escape with a strong sense of community.

You will feel like you are in an Italian tropical paradise. Many travelers love coming here when they are in Tamarindo area for a photo shoot.
