Jaco represents one of the most visited beach resorts in the whole of Costa Rica and a place that was envisioned as a resort community for people of all ages. There are lots of activities at your disposal, starting from water sports to natural attractions nearby. Although Jaco is a touristic destination, there is a significant community of expats and retirees who don’t mind the city’s vibrant lifestyle.
