Going to Jaco Beach from San Jose

by: ​Robelyn Martinez Yambao

​Hola,
This is Robelyn. Today, I'm gonna share my experience in going to Jaco beach. This beach is a tourist attraction because of big waves that is good for surfing. Many foreigners are coming to experience surfing and witness the view of the beach with black sand. During weekends, both locals and tourists are enjoying the beach. Here's , how we go there by bus.

FROM COCA-COLA STATION

​Last 2014-2015 when I was living in Jaco, the terminal was in Coca-Cola station. But, this year 2017 we got lost. We went to Coca-Cola station one time we visit Jaco only to find out that the terminal bound to Jaco was transferred last year in 7/10 terminal. So, from Coca-Cola station just take a taxi and tell the driver 7/10 terminal. If he won't use the meter, he gonna ask 2000 colones but if metered it will cost only 1500 colones. It's not too far from this terminal.

​7/10 TERMINAL

When you enter the terminal, it looks like a mall. Just go straight to the second floor to buy your ticket. There are two ticketing area the one on the right corner of the second floor is for Jaco. It is a big building and has nice ambiance compared to Coca-Cola station. While waiting for your trip, you can eat your snacks or lunch at the food court located on the 3rd floor. There is also ticketing area in this floor on the left corner beside the playground going to other destinations. You should be there at the bus line 15 minutes before your departure at the ground floor. The bus line is called Garabito. The trip will take you 2-3 hours to Jaco bus station.
