Martial arts class in Tamarindo Costa Rica

Guanacaste is a fantastic place for families. In the last ten years, a number of great schools have opened in the area that offer bilingual education and have curriculums that are recognized internationally. Parents that are moving to the area often ask about the activities that are available that their children can participate in outside of their regular school schedule. Letting your child play free on the beach year-round is one of the best things about raising kids in Costa Rica, but we have listed below a few other fun kids activities in the area.
