exit tax
Costa Rica requires a $26.00 per person exit fee when departing. This will be assessed at the airport. Be mindful that I believe they only take cash or colones..so please plan for this the day before you departure.

honeymoon updates
Quinn has allowed me the honor of choosing our Honeymoon site. I was perplexed, because to me, Costa Rica would be it. We have decided to send my managers back to Glass Wall The Restaurant without me for another week... they can handle it without me! Quinn and I will depart with you all at the airport and go in search of another less traveled Central American country. Here are my ideas…(yes, all but one them has world class surfbreaks for my early morning sessions). We would love to know your thoughts and experiences at any of these places. If you have other ideas we would love to hear them as well. I ruled out any trips to the far Pacific… as my Wavehunters Travel Guide has suggested I may be seriously impaled buy a nasty reef (based on my surfing skills the last time we were in the water). So we won’t need any of those recommendations at this time.

Libertad, El Salvador: a great coastal, party town

Southern Province, Costa Rica: driving the Southern Pacific and Caribbean coast

Panama: a private island on the Pacific called Santa Catalina

Guatemala: no surf but great people. Driving through the country from the mountains to the coast

Rapa Nui: island in the south pacific belonging to chile
