March 28, 2024, Monumento al Vaquetero y al Montador

Monument to the vaquetero and the fitter In 2000, the Municipality of Santa Cruz, Guanacaste, erected a monument to honor the bravery of the vaquetero and the skill of the rider against the brave bull. All of them expose their lives to demonstrate their mettle.

An amazing area of the Nicoya peninsula pacific coast. Junquillal beach and neighbouring Playa Blanco are calm and friendly with beautiful white sand. On the low tide you can hike and bike for many kilometres. Camping on Los Malinches property is right on the cliff above the beach facing west and open ocean. Perfect setup for unforgettable sunset. Bench is right there waiting for you. Don't use Calle Ventanas to get to the camp, as I did, it will make you hike the bike through the bushes. Use Calle Esperanza and then turn left in to the Ventanas. Please support local soda (national restaurant run by local family) La ventana del Surfista on the main road 928 just before Calle Esperanza. Incredible food prepared by the home owner, sourced from the local farmers and fisherman. Cheap and amazing. Enjoy and respect!
