¿Qué Pasa en Quepos? – November 2021

Bienvenidos… Welcome to the Rain Forest, can’t say the name did not warn you. It will probably rain a little while you’re here but don’t let that slow your adventures. Thanks to the rain, Manuel Antonio National Park is in full bloom attracting frogs, hummingbirds, and butterflies of every color. It is also baby season here in the jungle, so look closely as a lot of monkeys and sloths are carrying their young on their backs.

Congratulations to Costa Rica for winning the Earthshot award. One of five winners named for their innovated solutions for the protection and repair of Earth.

Whale season has been fantastic this year so get to Marina Pez Vela (Sunset Tours) and book your tour to get out there and experience these incredible animals up close. We also want to welcome Brisa Elegante…. a truly unique way to enjoy the coast and beyond.

And welcome to new advertiser, Secret Beach Home.

Marina Pez Vela will be hosting the tournaments we all look forward to the Dorado Derby and Dorado Derby Dos fishing tournaments Nov 13 and Nov 20th. These tournaments are open to all so get your team ready to compete for top prizes and enjoy great fishing and all the festivities. Don’t have a team? No worries, contact MPV and they can get you all hooked up. You don’t have to miss any of the sports action by catching all the World Series and NFL games at Jolly Roger. The rains are also proving great rafting on the nearby rivers and Nauyaca Waterfall (pg 57) is always amazing

Our many fine restaurants are serving up your favorite culinary delights. It is a good idea to call ahead this time of year because some restaurants close for a quick vacation before high season hits.

Thanksgiving is Nov. 25. After these last months we all have something to be thankful for moving forward to this coming season. We want to wish all our advertisers and writers and readers a VERY Happy Thanksgiving, we could not do this magazine without you.

Colinas will be serving their famous traditional Thanksgiving dinner with all the fixings so make reservations and reserve your drumstick.

Toys for Tots will have their collection boxes around the area. So, let’s “Be Nice” and help the children and their families have a wonderful Christmas by dropping an unwrapped gift to help brighten someone’s holiday. Santa can always use your help.

We hope you enjoy our magazine and it helps guide you through this enchanting paradise we call home. You can always follow and share us here and on Facebook/Quepolandia. We appreciate and welcome your comments.

Peace and Enjoy…D
