GREEN SEASON · PLAYA GARZA · NEAR NOSARA
Green season
retreats.
Lush jungle, a quiet beach and the whole place for your group. Bring your people to Playa Garza, near Nosara, when Costa Rica turns green.
MAY TO NOVEMBER
A slow, green
rhythm.
Nature, ocean sounds, barefoot living, tree shade. In the green season the jungle is at its fullest, the beach is quiet and the days find a slow, peaceful rhythm, with rain that often comes as afternoon or evening showers.
It is a good time for a group to have the place to itself: you bring the teachings; we show you the Costa Rica magic.
