Espadilla Beach (Playa Espadilla) and Crocodile Bridge | Overlanding Costa Rica | Van life Day 9

Описание: 🚐 Van Life Day 9 – Espadilla Beach, Crocodile Bridge & The End of Our Costa Rica Overlanding Adventure 🏝️🇨🇷 Our final day of van life in Costa Rica is all about soaking up the last bit of pura vida before heading home. We start the morning at Igloo Beach Lodge with a relaxed breakfast, then head to Espadilla Beach—one of the most iconic beaches in Manuel Antonio. We spend the day swimming, walking the shoreline, and taking in the ocean breeze before beginning our journey north. In the afternoon, we stop at the famous Crocodile Bridge (Puente de los Cocodrilos) over the Tárcoles River—a must-see spot where massive crocodiles gather below. After that, we return our trusty Kia Bongo 4x4 at Nomad America, shower, pack, and get ready for the flights back home.
