Very popular, Playa Ventanas is the favorite beach of the locals and certainly the most popular in the canton of Osa. People come here for swimming, surfing, but above all to have a good time with family or friends around a good grill in a local and festive atmosphere.
The beach is supervised and safe for swimming and the exit from a small river allows children to swim in a natural pool in complete tranquility.
Holes in the rock going from the edge of the beach to the ocean contribute to the particularity and originality of this beach.
There are also a large number of sellers selling all kinds of loincloths, souvenirs and food on site. Parking is paid but very affordable and toilets are available.



Architectural cultural heritage of Costa Rica, the Catholic Church of the Sacred Heart of Jesus in Palmar Sur is worth the detour to admire its typical and charming architecture, one of the rare vestiges of the era and historical memory of Palmar and the Canton. A few hundred meters away, you can also take the opportunity to admire the “maquina Negra”, a former locomotive of the banana company.
