The engine rumbles, dust lifts, and the Pacific slips into view: a two‑hour UTV loop that threads scrubby dry forest, rutted volcanic trails, river fords and open sand toward Tamarindo and Flamingo beaches. You feel the vehicle buck over rocky corduroy, then ease onto a windblown beach where the ocean dares you to stop and stare.
