According to the Costa Rican Tourism Institute, the Province of Guanacaste is known principally for its cattle production, to the rest of us its warm-water and a great variety of waves. attraction for nationals and foreigners alike. Hotels of all categories from bottom-dollar to top-of-the-range luxuary hotels can be found scattered along the coast.
