Santa Teresa, Costa Rica

Santa Teresa is a small town in Puntarenas Province, Costa Rica. It is located about 150 kilometres (93 mi) west of the capital city of San José. Like other coastal villages on the Nicoya Peninsula such as neighboring Mal Pais, Santa Teresa started as a remote fishing village, relying on agriculture, cattle ranching and small-scale fishing. Today, tourism is the main source of income of most families, and the town hosts surf camps, yoga retreats, and both luxury and budget accommodations.Visitors come from elsewhere in Costa Rica, from other Latin American countries, from the USA and Canada, and from Europe and Israel.
