Lazy Days at Samara Beach

Bite-sized trip

  • Itinerary:
    Samara Beach
  • Duration:
    3 days / 2 nights (flexible)
  • Price:
    From £ 215.- per person (excluding flights)
Samara is a cosy village with a long, sandy beach, perfect for surfing and sunset walks. Complete with palm trees and a calm sea that slopes gently from the sand, it's a great location to relax beside the Pacific Ocean. Head out in a kayak to deserted beaches and snorkel amongst the tropical fish. The jungle surroundings here are truly beautiful. At night you can hear the hundreds of sounds of the jungle come to life and the roar of the sea, what could be more blissful?

Day 1 – Arrival in Samara

On arrival in Samara you’ll check in to your cosy hotel only minutes from the beach. You’ll be grateful for the air-conditioned rooms and the swimming pool. In the village of Samara you’ll find a few restaurants and bars, but not much more than that. Prop up your feet, grab a good book and a tropical cocktail, and just ease in to the relaxed pace of life here.

Days 2-3 – Kayaking & relaxation

Today you’ll be collected from your hotel along with a small group to drive to the starting point of your excursion. After a briefing, you’ll hop in your kayak to paddle over to Isla Chora. Here you’ll find an uninhabited white sand beach, the perfect spot for snorkelling off the beach and spotting the multi-coloured tropical fish darting past your mask. After a buffet of fresh local fruit, you’ll kayak back to the mainland where you can relax for the rest of the day.

Day 3 – Departure from Samara

If you’d like a little more beach time then we can easily book a few extra nights here, but otherwise your stay comes to an end this morning, and you’ll head off to your next destination in Costa Rica.
