^^^ Yep I agree with this statement as well. I have travelled enough to understand that you DO NOT want to try and see everything. At least stay still for 20% of your trip in one spot. You get to know the lifestyle and if you stay with a family, you see that spot form the inside, not as a tourist. These experiances are so much more valuable.
Take a surf lesson in Tamrindo, then go to MAL PAIS/SANTA TERESA an dget pummeled by the ocean there. Costa Rica has the best surf, I've been twice and its been pumping the entire time for both trips.
Try renting a car in CR, it is quite easy to move around, just watch for potholes.
REMEMBER THIS - $5 bottles of Fluer De Cana will be your best friend try to get the aged 5 or 7 years. Big cola is a huge taste sealer.
Explore your own path, take all advice with a grain of salt, and if you like a place...stay there for a bit longer.
