"What a place to be...." Jacó by Matt420

I was only able to spend 4 days in Jaco which was way to short! The time it takes to slow yourself down to the pace of this surfers village is at least a week. Everything seems to move at a little slower pace.

It only took about 15 minutes of watching the experienced surfers catching waves to make me want to give it a try. After about 20 minutes with an instructor, I was hooked! The waves in Jaco are a little smaller then in Playa Hermosa but are great for learning.

The night life was pretty good. There are casinos in Jaco, but since we didn't visit any I don't have a lot to say about them. If you looking for a varity of bars, you shouldn't have any trouble, and every night is ladies night somewhere.

This picture was taken in front of the Colonial Restraunt (I believe) and it is acutally a tree root turned upside down.

• Pros:Surfing, sight seeing and shopping
• Cons:Petty theft - don't leave anything unattended
• In a nutshell:Just another day in paradise
