Montezuma Costa Rica

Montezuma is a long-time favorite for travelers in Costa Rica. The picturesque little village is known for its bohemian flair and the stunning beauty of its beaches, rivers and waterfalls.

Itinerant artists in Montezuma

For decades Montezuma has drawn European and American drop-outs, naturalists and artists who formed a colorful counter-cultural, multi-ethnic melange of people.

The bay of Montezuma, Costa Rica

Nestled into a landscape reflecting the tropical paradise, Montezuma is a travel destination for eco-tourists, beach lovers and offbeat tourists alike. The small beach village is hemmed in by high cliffs overgrown with jungle where small rivers tumble down and form scenic waterfalls and natural pools. Groups of capuchin monkeys live in the forests around Montezuma and are easy to spot.

Montezuma's center, with charming old wood houses, itinerant artists, and vivid street life feels like the open-air living room of the community where a continuous mellow party takes place.

Montezuma center looking upon Chico's bar

The hot spot of the nightlife scene is Chico's Bar right in the center of Montezuma. The open air bar with dance floor looks out to the street life on the front side and on the back has lounging by the sea where you can watch the moon shimmering over the Gulf of Nicoya.

The organic market in Montezuma

Across from the Gulf, 50 km from Montezuma, is the mainland of Costa Rica and there are taxi boats available to whisk you over to Jaco.

The hippie roots of Montezuma are most palpaple on the small farmers market held each Saturday morning. Here you can buy organic food, handicrafts and clothes, while musicians gather for a jam session.
