About Tamarindo
Your La Fortuna to Tamarindo transfer deposits you in a tropical paradise, home to incredible sandy beaches, richly diverse nature preserves, and a vibrant surf culture. Tamarindo is best known for its abundance of watersport opportunities, with unmatched surfing, diving, snorkeling, and fishing. The town is one of the more modern fixtures in this area of Costa Rica, so it also boasts an energetic nightlife and ample shopping and dining choices.
Surfers, snorkelers, and sunbathers are spoiled for choice with renowned beaches such as Playa Tamarindo and Playa Langosta. From October to May, visitors can also head to Playa Grande to witness the nesting behaviors of hundreds of magnificent leatherback sea turtles. Other natural wonders include the bountiful mangroves, jungle scapes, and the Tamarindo Wildlife Refuge estuary, home to crocodiles and howler monkeys.
Visitors to this coastal town can take part in surf lessons for every level, including private coaching for true beginners in need of basic instruction. Or, take to the treeline with ziplining through the jungle and hikes across the hanging bridges in Monteverde Cloud forest. There are also guided tours on horseback and whitewater rafting trips available for the more adventurous sightseer.
Tamarindo is one of the most popular tropical getaways on the Pacific Coast of Costa Rica and is packed with outdoor recreation, surfing spots for every skill level, and plenty of chances to try the local food. A trip here showcases some of the best that the country has to offer, and may be made even more memorable with a Daytrip private transfer to start your visit out smoothly.
From La Fortuna to Tamarindo: travel tips
Before your journey from La Fortuna to Tamarindo, a few considerations can make your trip as seamless as possible.
Stay budget-friendly with a shuttle
If you want to save on transportation costs but still need comfort and convenience, consider the group shuttle offered by Daytrip. This service starts at only $32 and gets you direct transportation in just under 4 hours with a friendly, professional driver. This is also a great choice for avoiding the hassle of navigating public transit with all of your luggage.
Book activities in advance
For activities such as private surf lessons or smaller group tours on horseback, itâs a good idea to plan and book your guides as early as possible ahead of your trip. Particularly in peak travel seasons, the most in-demand activities can be filled for weeks!
Stop along the way
If you want to experience as much of Costa Rica as possible, make the trip to Tamarindo with a private Daytrip driver. You can stop at places such as the Arenal Volcano National Park or La Fortuna waterfalls. These slight detours will create lasting memories on your travel day without requiring you to stay the night outside of the major towns or factor in a separate day trip.
How to get from La Fortuna to Tamarindo
There are a few different options for getting from La Fortuna to Tamarindo depending on your priorities and budget, all varying in cost and travel time. The following options are organized based on practicality, from least to most efficient.
Flight from La Fortuna to Tamarindo
It is possible to take a flight from La Fortuna to Tamarindo, but the journey is not direct and ultimately does not save you time in comparison to driving. The trip will take you about 6 hours in total and begins with an hour-long shuttle to Alajuela, where you will have to catch the airport shuttle to INVU Las Cañas. From there, you can walk to the airport in San Jose and board a flight to Tamarindo. This can cost $179-$650, not counting transportation to and from the airport, depending on how far in advance you book.
Bus from La Fortuna to Tamarindo
There is a public bus route from La Fortuna to Tamarindo that takes about 6.5 hours and requires at least one transfer to a new bus in Cañas. There is also often a stop required in Tilaran about 30 minutes before you reach Cañas. This is likely the cheapest option, averaging around $25-40 for tickets. However, keep in mind that buses can sometimes fill up before you get a seat, and you will still have to navigate to and from your accommodation in either city.
Group shuttle from La Fortuna to Tamarindo
Daytrip offers a group shuttle service for up to 7 people at a time, with multiple daily departures. Itâs more reliable than the public bus, and you get better service, with a friendly, English-speaking driver to talk to along the way. Since itâs direct from La Fortuna to Tamarindo, itâs also faster, taking just under 4 hours in a comfortable van. Prices start at just $32.
Private car transfer from La Fortuna to Tamarindo
A Daytrip private car transfer from La Fortuna to Tamarindo is the best option for many travelers, as it provides stress-free door-to-door transportation and lets you stop along the way to experience more of Costa Rica. You will also receive local insights from your friendly English-speaking driver, providing you with a more personalized experience. A private car service is more reliable and cheaper than relying on local taxis, and you can let Daytrip know if youâre traveling with large luggage like surfboards. Starting at $48 per person, itâs a great deal considering the service you get.
Things to do when you get to Tamarindo
Once you arrive in Tamarindo, there are a wide variety of activities for the whole family to take part in. However you choose to travel from La Fortuna to Tamarindo, be sure to plan ahead and include the most popular attractions of this tropical paradise in your itinerary.
For surfers, it is hard to beat the variety of surf breaks in Tamarindo. Different beaches will be suitable for different skill levels, and there is something for everyone from the very beginner to the advanced or expert surfers. The most popular beaches for every level are:
Surf Playa Tamarindo
This is the most popular beach for beginners, with small waves and a sandy bottom (no danger of reef incidents.) This is also the closest beach to the center of town and is great for swimming and sunbathing too if surfing isnât the goal of your trip!
Playa Casitas
This charming beach may be suitable for all surfers, beginners and pros alike, as the different breaks offer smaller waves and larger swells depending on where (and when) you visit. The beach is named for the tiny houses scattered along the shoreline and is worth a visit for the quaint coastal scenery even if you wonât be surfing.
Playa Langosta
Langosta is known for larger waves and crystal clear waters coming in from Tamarindo Bay, and it may be best for intermediate-advanced surfers.
Playa Grande
As the name suggests, this is a very large beach offering a few different surf breaks. Generally, though, the waves are stronger and larger across all of the breaks and are best left to more advanced surfers. This can be a great spot to come watch others take on the powerful swells while you soak up the sun from the soft sand!
Playa Avellana
Avellana is perhaps the most famous beach in Tamarindo among experienced surfers, and is known by the locals as âlittle Hawaii.â The waves here are big, sometimes reaching heights of up to 18 feet (5.5 meters), so itâs best left to the most advanced surfers!
Take a jungle trek
Beyond the beaches, be sure to explore the surrounding natural beauty of Tamarindo with one of the many jungle treks or trips to the volcanic national parks. This town highlights the surreal beauty of Costa Rica, in the water and on dry land.
When is the best time to visit Tamarindo?
The most popular time to visit Tamarindo is in December and January, given the dry, sunny climate perfect for long days at the beach. However, as the dry season lasts from November to April, consider timing your visit for the shoulder months of late autumn and early spring.
You will still be avoiding the rainy season, and youâll likely find much better deals on flights and accommodation. The surf schools and other popular attractions tend to be less crowded too. If you are a beginner surfer, the early spring months tend to summon medium-sized swells that may be less intimidating than those rolling in during the winter.

âJag anvĂ€nde denna tjĂ€nst för en transfer frĂ„n Split i Kroatien till Perast i Montenegro. Min upplevelse var exceptionell. Min chaufför Bojan var hjĂ€lpsam, informativ och sĂ„g till att min resa var bekvĂ€m och trevlig. Jag rekommenderar starkt denna tjĂ€nst.â
âVi var mycket nöjda med kvaliteten pĂ„ den service vi fick frĂ„n Day Trip. Vi hade tvĂ„ resor med Day Trip: den 31 augusti frĂ„n Aten till Lefkada och den 7 september frĂ„n Lefkada tillbaka till Aten. BĂ„da resorna inkluderade stopp vid natursköna platser i Grekland. BĂ„da förarna var utmĂ€rkta och tillmötesgĂ„ende. Vi vill dock sĂ€rskilt uppmĂ€rksamma Panos Peppas, som var vĂ„r förare frĂ„n Lefkada till Aten. Panos var otroligt trevlig och behaglig och levererade enastĂ„ende kundservice, som inkluderade att han tog hand om allt vĂ„rt bagage, gav oss kallt vatten under hela resan, försĂ„g oss med proteinbars, gav oss tryckt material om Korintkanalen (ett av de natursköna stoppen), tog reda pĂ„ och gav oss terminal- och gateinformation för vĂ„rt flyg hem, samt gav oss ett recept pĂ„ tzatziki.â

âVi Ă€lskar verkligen det hĂ€r företaget och har anvĂ€nt det mĂ„nga gĂ„nger genom Ă„ren för att ta oss frĂ„n A till B utan krĂ„nglet med att hyra bil sjĂ€lva. UtmĂ€rkta chaufförer varje gĂ„ng. Effektiva och professionella. Det Ă€r vĂ€rt varenda krona, och vi rekommenderar Ă€rligt Day Trip till alla. Deras femstjĂ€rniga betyg Ă€r vĂ€lförtjĂ€nt.â
âVi reste frĂ„n NĂŒrnberg till MĂŒnchen i en vacker Audi. Chauffören hĂ€mtade oss pĂ„ vĂ„rt hotell exakt vid den begĂ€rda tiden. Han fick oss till MĂŒnchen i god tid för vĂ„r nĂ€sta tur. Chauffören sĂ„g till att vi hade det bekvĂ€mt.â
âGonzalo frĂ„n Daytrip var vĂ„r chaufför och han var helt fantastisk. Han gjorde allt för att hitta oss eftersom vĂ„r mobiltĂ€ckning var dĂ„lig. Han vĂ€ntade tĂ„lmodigt i lobbyn tills vi kom, sĂ„ att han kunde köra oss frĂ„n Tulum Dreams Resort till vĂ„rt andra hotell i CancĂșn, en och en halv timme bort nĂ€ra flygplatsen inför vĂ„r hemresa. Han var artig, respektfull och vĂ€nlig. Han sĂ„g till att vi hade det bekvĂ€mt under hela resan. Snabb och effektiv. Jag rekommenderar detta företag eftersom det inte Ă€r lĂ€tt eller billigt att hitta en enkelresa frĂ„n Tulum till CancĂșn, och detta företag erbjuder en utmĂ€rkt tjĂ€nst till ett bra pris. Jag kommer definitivt att anvĂ€nda dem igen nĂ€r jag Ă€r i omrĂ„det CancĂșn/Tulum. Tack DayTrip och Gonzalo.â
âMarianna hĂ€mtade oss för att köra oss frĂ„n Heraklion till Chania. VĂ€dret var hemskt, och pĂ„ grund av detta kom Marianna nĂ„gra minuter sent. Hon kontaktade mig för att meddela det. Marianna bor i Chania och gjorde resan vĂ€ldigt intressant genom att berĂ€tta om lokala sevĂ€rdheter och saker att göra i Chania. Marianna Ă€r en sĂ€ker förare och vi kĂ€nde oss alla trygga med bĂ„de hastigheten och hur bra hon körde i det kraftiga regnet. Hon Ă€r en underbar person och talar flytande engelska. Vi rekommenderar verkligen Daytrip, och om du Ă€r i Heraklion eller Chania, se till att frĂ„ga efter Marianna.â
âJag anvĂ€nde tjĂ€nsten för att Ă„ka frĂ„n Luxor till Hurghada, Egypten. Ahmed H var vĂ„r chaufför och han var perfekt. Bilen var ny, ren, han hade vatten och snacks för oss och anpassade sig efter vĂ„ra stopp. Fantastisk service frĂ„n honom, jag rekommenderar det varmt.â
âVi anvĂ€nde Daytrip för tvĂ„ resor i Mexiko, och bĂ„da var fantastiska. SĂ„ bekvĂ€mt, och vi anlĂ€nde till varje destination i perfekt tid. BĂ„da förarna var otroliga, och vi kĂ€nde oss vĂ€ldigt trygga. En av vĂ„ra förare, Miguel, spelade dessutom den bĂ€sta musiken! Vi kommer definitivt att anvĂ€nda Daytrip pĂ„ vĂ„r nĂ€sta resa till Mexiko.â

âVi visste inte vad vi skulle förvĂ€nta oss av denna resa och bokade frĂ„n Australien. Vi letade frĂ„n början efter ett enkelt sĂ€tt att resa frĂ„n Granada till Malaga. Vi bestĂ€mde oss för att inte missa möjligheten att se nĂ„got extra pĂ„ vĂ€gen. Miguel övertrĂ€ffade verkligen vĂ„ra förvĂ€ntningar. Hans engelska var utmĂ€rkt (tyvĂ€rr talar vi mycket lite spanska), och han var mycket vĂ€nlig och hjĂ€lpsam. Vi njöt verkligen av att höra om regionerna nĂ€r vi passerade genom dem och Ă€ven att diskutera nĂ„gra av de lokala sĂ€tten. Miguel tog oss till Antequera som planerat och sĂ„g till att vi enkelt kunde fĂ„ vĂ„ra biljetter till attraktionerna utan nĂ„gon brĂ„dska. Vi blev upphĂ€mtade och avlĂ€mnade punktligt och njöt verkligen av vĂ„r resa. Förhoppningsvis kommer vi att Ă„tervĂ€nda till Spanien och vi kan anvĂ€nda denna tjĂ€nst igen nĂ„gon gĂ„ng.â
âI'm traveling in Costa Rica and was looking for transportation from Tamarindo to La Fortuna. I found mydaytrip.com and saw all of the positive reviews so I decided to take a chance. I'm so glad I did. My driver Danny was great. He showed me different sites along the way and even stopped so I could take pictures. As a solo traveler, he made sure I was comfortable and ensured I didn't need anything. Booking through mydaytrip.com actually cost less than trying to book with group transportation. I highly recommend Danny and mydaytrip.com for all of your travel needs in Costa Rica.â
