Christmas Spirit Comes to Jaco. It’s sunny and 70 degrees so is it any wonder Santa Claus visits the beach?

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas in Jaco, thanks go to the energetic and enthusiastic group of young ladies over at Jaco Living!

A special event held in Jaco’s Central Park on the eve of December 8th last year was an overwhelming success!

Complete with face painting, dancing, Christmas carols and colorful mimes on skates, stilts and bouncing shoes the children were thrilled by the visit from Santa Claus (known as Papá Noel in Costa Rica) accompanied by Mrs. Claus.

They all took a turn on his knee to share their secret wishes for what they would like him to bring to them for Christmas.

The group raised funds from the Thanksgiving Cup, a charity golf event that took place in November in Los Suenos.

This is the first time the town of Jaco has held a community event for Christmas, the Christmas lights in the park are lit throughout the month of December.
