La Fortuna (Arenal Volcano) to Tamarindo Beach
This is the crossing most itineraries make after Arenal: volcano first, then the Guanacaste coast. The route leaves the rainforest around La Fortuna and comes out on the dry northern Pacific, where Tamarindo sits at the centre of the surf coast — a sandy-bottomed break with no reef, warm water year-round and day trips out to the Catalina Islands. Doing it as a private transfer keeps it to a single vehicle and a single fare for the group, with stops for lunch or photos wherever you want them, instead of connecting shuttles through Liberia.
