I stayed at SI COMO NO in Manual Antonio/Quepos. There is that restauraunt there that is made out of a plane that was left behind after the iran-contra affair. I have some really cool pics of poaz as well. Can't wait to go back.

Yep, El Avion, we ate there two nights ago.. Excellent food and a beautiful sunset...

We stayed at the Hotel Playa Espadilla, directly infront of the park entrance.

yeah got a picture of my wife and myself with the sunset behind us that night.

Loved the beach at the park. I recall that there were 3 seperate beaches. Once had really rough waves and we ended up being the only two people on that beach. Awesome time.

Why are the beaches empty in your pics?

Wrong season for being in the water?

Sweet! I think after 4 trips to Hawaii (every Island except Oahu, Kaho'olawe, and Ni'ihau), the wife and I are planning on going somewhere else for our next tropical vacation. I've been wanting to go to Costa Rica or Belize for some time now. How long of a plane trip is it for you?

Direct flight is around 2:20 from Miami. Pretty much due south.

Is it safe for a solo traveler?

Yup, that is the park with the 3 beaches that I was talking about. When I was there my wife and I had one whole beach to ourselves.

I would say so, but it helps if you know a bit of spanish.

What camera did you use for those pictures? I'm going on a driving trip from Panama City to Costa Rica and then swinging over to Bocas del Toro for a couple weeks in June. I want a newer camera that can take decent pictures but I'm not sure what to get with my budget of a few hundred. Thanks!
