Jaco Beach has always been considered to be one of the most popular tourist destinations in Costa Rica and the hub for the Central Pacific region.

In years past, Jaco’s proximity to San Jose was one of the strongest selling points. While many beach towns were a 4-5 hour drive from San Jose, Jaco was considered a short drive at just over 2 hours.

In 2010 all of that changed with the new Caldera highway. The new highway now makes Jaco an even easier and quicker trip to the country’s capital.

Now that Jaco is just a one hour drive to San Jose and the Central Valley, locals are discovering that a visit to the beach can be for a short weekend or even just for the day.

For Costa Ricans this is all still a very new concept, in the past many Ticos only traveled to the beach during the vacation weeks of Semana Santa or Christmas. Here are some reasons why the future is very bright for Jaco and why it is quickly becoming the favorite beach destination for those living in San Jose & the Central Valley:

Location, Location, Location.

Apart from its proximity to San Jose, Jaco is slap bang in the middle of the Central Pacific region.

The Central Pacific features a number of popular destinations and offers a variety of pristine beaches for you and your family to enjoy. The neighboring beach of Hermosa is considered one of the top surf destinations in Central America.

To the north of Jaco you have the the exclusive Los Suenos Resort, home to the a full slip marina and 18 championship golf course. As well you have Punta Leona, with its white sand beaches and picturesque rainforest backdrop.

The Central Pacific truly offers something for everyone and Jaco is ideally situated in between it all.

Improving Infrastructure In and Around the Jaco Area.

Coastal development in Costa Rica is still very young, and in many cases beach destinations have little room to expand or have the infrastructure to support growth.

While most beaches in Costa Rica are built with just one road to go in and out, Jaco has five different entrances, a significant key in Jaco’s ability to grow and support traffic. Locals who come to visit for the weekend are looking to experience great eating and activities, the region has no shortage of either.
