Tamarindo Single Origin Honey
Tamarindo Single Origin Honey
Tamarindo is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Costa Rica. It is recognized worldwide for its ideal beach for surfers.
It is located within the Las Baulas National Marine Park. As Tamarindo is part of a wildlife refuge, the spawning of leatherback, green and olive ridley turtles that arrive between the months of October and March is protected.
The beach stands out for its gentle waves and crystalline waters, with clear sand, lush vegetation, reefs and gorgeous landscape in general. It was formerly an artisanal fishing village until the early 1980s, where local residents lived by fishing for red snapper and bass.
