Culebra Bay holidays

Home to several heavenly beaches bordering vivid blue-green water, Culebra Bay is a picturesque crescent-shaped bay within the Gulf of Papagayo, on Costa Rica’s Pacific coast. The famously blue sea surrounding Culebra Bay offers outstanding snorkelling and diving opportunities, and underwater enthusiasts might be lucky enough to spot colourful fish, sea turtles and even small sharks. If you’d rather stay above the surface, Culebra Bay’s sublime beaches boast calm waters and powder-soft white sand, favoured by swimmers and sunbathers. Beyond the beaches, there are several national parks nearby (including Rincon de le Vieja National Park and Santa Rosa National Park), which offer a range of natural and cultural experiences.
