Montezuma Town and Beach<\/h1>\n
\"montezuma

Montezuma downtown at noon<\/p><\/div>\n

Previously we talked about the Montezuma waterfalls, one of the most beautiful spots in the Nicoya Peninsula area. Now it is time to talk about the town and the beach of the same name, which is just a few meters away from the waterfalls.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Montezuma Town<\/h2>\n
\"handicraft

Handicraft and souvenirs shop are common around Montezuma.<\/p><\/div>\n

Located about 8 kilometers from the city of Cobano, between a plateau and the sea is the hidden town of Montezuma.
\nThis town was an important port for the entry and exit of products in the area. Boats would come from Puntarenas bringing goods while carrying raw materials from the area back to the interior of the country.
\nToday some boats still arrive at Montezuma beach carrying people from Puntarenas and Jaco.
\nThe town has changed to be more oriented to tourism and the exchange of local products such as fish and agricultural products. There is also trade in handicrafts.
\nThe presence of restaurants, bars and even ice cream parlors makes notable the presence of businesses that revolve around the visitor.
\nThe soccer field and the park are in the middle of the town, which is used by the locals to practice different sports on their days off.
\nHotels are everywhere offering popular prices. Outside the village you can find more exclusive hotels.
\nAll these places are located a few steps from the sea giving a unique view while enjoying a drink, a meal or a coffee.\n<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Montezuma Beach <\/h2>\n
\"montezuma

The forest in one side and sea in the other, perfect beach for campers.<\/p><\/div>\n

The beach is about 100 meters from the village. Most of the coastline in the area is rocky soil which is not very friendly to sandy beach lovers.
\nThe only sandy portion of the coast around is a beach of about 2 kilometers with the presence of some reefs.
\nDespite this, some surfers perform their maneuvers here among the rocks that protrude from the seabed and reefs.
\nFor swimmers it is a beach where the waves can be a little rough. In the center of the beach the waves become friendlier offering less change in the elevation of the shoreline surface. This makes for safer swimming and lower elevation waves.
\nBut the delight of this beach remains for the campers. With forest and a hillside behind that has not allowed the construction of real estate, it has an almost virgin beach with lush vegetation a few meters from the village.
\nUnder the trees campers pitch their tents, protected from the heat of the sun’s rays. In front you have a view of the Pacific Ocean.\n<\/p>\n

Playa Montezuma y las Tortugas <\/h2>\n
\"view

The Nicolas Wessberg Reserve<\/p><\/div>\n

Esta playa es conocida por ser un lugar de desove de huevos de la tortuga. Algunas organizaciones ecologistas tienen una base ah\u00ed donde locales y extranjeros voluntarios patrullan para proteger los huevos y las actividades de desove.
\nA veces, despu\u00e9s de que la hembra deja los huevos, los miembros de estas asociaciones los mueven cuidadosamente a una guarder\u00eda, donde estar\u00e1n mejor vigiladores.
\nLas tortugas mama llegan a desovar entre junio y julio, mientras las primeras tortuguitas salen de sus huevos de agosto a septiembre.
\nLos campistas con suerte puede disfrutar del desove de la tortuga, mientras lo hagan a la distancia adecuada, en silencio y sin molestar a las tortugas.\n <\/p>\n
