Delicias
Above Montezuma, there's Delicias
Going south to Cabuya from Montezuma and crossing the
bridge over the Montezuma River, you'll find the footpath to
the waterfall on the right, opposite the Amor de Mar hotel. A
few yards further on from the hotel is a right turn on the
paved road leading up the hill to Delicias. Heading up this
hill, you'll find the Butterfly Gardens and the starting point
of the Canopy Tour. In the soft hills of Delicias there are a
few hotels, some with pool, some without …. and in many
cases with breathtaking views. Here you wake up to the
sound of birdsong, howler monkeys and other sounds of
nature.

Montezuma
From Cóbano it's about 8 kilometers to Montezuma town,situated on the inside of the Nicoya Peninsula 25 kilometers from the tip, Cabo Blanco. It's a no-stop sign, one intersection town, everything is within walking distance. Delicias, Los Cedros and Cabuya are "barrios" assosiated with Montezuma. When the swell is from south there is good serfing in Los Cedros,3 kilometers south of the town. There is also surf at Playa Grande.There is a waterfall from the clifftop to the beach at Playa Grande, which makes a great hourseback trip. There is also a series of waterfalls just south of Montezuma, a 20 min. hikeup the river.

Mal Pais
Lying on the same road is the quiet brother of Sta. Teresa. Though the name of the place stands for "Bad Country", probably for not having natural water, it is peace and quiet for the tourist, 7 km away from Sta. Teresa parties.
