Vamos a la playa! Jaco Beach’s reputation is built on having one of the best beaches in Costa Rica. Stretching nearly two miles on the Pacific coast, it’s where you’ll find sand, sun, and basking in ‘Pura Vida’ during your Costa Rica bachelor party.
You’ll have some of the best beaches in Costa Rica, all within a short distance. Los Sueños sits on Herradura Beach, and it’s just a short drive to the main Jaco Beach. Bask in the beauty of Hermosa Beach (which literally translates to beautiful beach), and you can find those idyllic white sands at Playa Blanca (Spanish for White Beach).
2. Go on outdoor adventures in a national park

You’ll never be short on outdoor adventures this bachelor party vacation. Manuel Antonio National Park is the second most-visited national park in Costa Rica. It's one of the most biodiverse places in the world, so keep your eyes peeled because this park has tons of animals and plants to discover.
Take advantage of Los Sueños Resort’s Jaco VIP services for a private ride to the park entrance, approximately two hours away. It’s worth the trek for a chance to see more than 100 different species of animals. Take various hiking trails through mangroves, routes to the park’s beach, waterfalls, and viewpoints. Guided tours give the best chance at spotting the park’s most famous creatures—Squirrel Monkeys, Howler Monkeys, and Capuchin Monkeys.
3. Take to the seas on a guided fishing trip

You reeled in the best catch ever with your future wife-to-be. Now, it’s time to test your skills in the deep sea. Did you know that Jaco Beach is the fishing capital of Costa Rica? These waters are filled with an abundance of wildlife. Whether you want to cast your line near the shore or see what’s biting in the depths of the ocean, this bachelor party trip will give you the best chance at catching a trophy fish.
Depart from Los Sueños Marina on a deep-sea fishing charter to catch the area’s most sought-after sea creatures—the giant blue marlin and sailfish. Casual anglers will do well with a half-day excursion. Dedicated fishers can spend a full day of their Jaco bachelor party reeling them in.
4. Book surf lessons for groomsmen

Before riding the wave into married life, you deserve to surf some of the world’s best curls. Jaco Beach is a beach town with a booming surf culture that attracts surfers worldwide.

Before gliding into holy matrimony, zipline across the lush rainforests just a short drive inland from the Jaco Beach shore. Central America has one of the world’s most biodiverse rainforests, covering more than half of Costa Rica! What better way to see it than from the canopy?
Rainforest Adventure is a go-to company offering adventure tours in the rainforest. For the daring members of your groups, the canopy tour zipline course will give you the adrenaline rush you’re seeking, with more than 650 feet of zip lines above the treetops. For the less intrepid, the park’s aerial tram will take you on a scenic ride above the canopy.
6. Rev up on an ATV tour

Save your cleanest clothes for the wedding day because you’re about to get down and dirty this Jaco Beach bachelor party on a thrilling ATV tour. Line up your 4-wheelers in order of groomsmen and rev up those engines for off-road exploration around Jaco Beach.
ATV tours are guided expeditions through the rainforest. It’s the perfect way to spend a few hours traversing the rugged rainforest terrain to reach breathtaking panoramic views. Cool off after your ride with a swim in one of the hidden waterfalls.

Splish splash! It’s you and your groomsmen against the powerful currents as you attempt to navigate Jaco Beach’s rapid rivers. Trade in your wedding tuxedo jacket for a life jacket. Sit in the raft, grab your paddle, and prepare for a wild ride.
Jaco Beach has several white water raft locations nearby. Tours are offered to the Naranjo River, Savergre River, and the Chorro River. A guide joins you as you splash your way through canyons and rainforests. Look out for boulders and maintain balance to keep from tipping over!

Take a catamaran boat ride across the Gulf of Nicoya to the beautiful Isla Tortuga (Tortuga Island). Only accessible by boat, it’s the perfect way to bring exclusivity to your Jaco Beach bachelor party.
Spend the day cruising the waters and enjoying group activities around the island. The picturesque white-sand virgin beach sees few visitors compared to the shores at Jaco Beach, so it will feel like your very own private beach. Relax on the shore or venture into the crystal-clear waters to see plenty of tropical fish swimming around you. These tours equip you with everything you need, whether you want to go snorkeling, fishing, kayaking, and more.
