Playa Blanca is a tranquil town situated on the southern tip of the island which takes its name from the white sands of its beaches. It is a very quiet un-spoilt resort that has been sympathetically developed so that the centre of the town has retained much of its original fishing village charm.

 

Playa Blanca is perfect for families and couples looking for relaxation on their summer holiday. It's also a great winter sun escape. Beach-lovers will be impressed with Playa Blanca. it's here that you'll discover some of the island's whitest, most unspoilt beaches, including the most famous on the island, the Papagayo coves. The absence of partying teenagers is a real plus point.
