# Playa Carrillo

Playa Carrillo is a postcard-perfect beach in Costa Rica's Guanacaste province, next to the small fishing village of Puerto Carrillo.

## Get in

The beach is accessible via paved road from its larger sister to the north, Playa Sámara. It is a drive of approximately 6 km.

## Get around

Walking works well. A bike is good in town. A surfboard works best on the tasty waves.

## Do

The typical amenities found on most Costa Rican beaches are harder to find here; the beach is relatively quiet and deserted. For the usual offering of rental and tour services, your best bet is to head to neighboring Sámara.

## Sleep

There are a few accommodations in the town of Puerto Carrillo, on the hill that slopes eastward from the beach.
* The Hotel Esperanza, on the main drag, is clean and comfortable, with a pool and a pleasant restaurant.

Guanamar is close to Samara beach hotels (6.5 km, 4 miles) and 1600 m (1 mile) from local airport (Samara Airport). US$65 standard double.

## Go next

The coastal route south of Puerto Carrillo turns into a dirt- and dust-riddled affair. Though it is it is possible to explore the southwestern reaches of the Nicoya peninsula this way, it should not be done without a 4x4 and should be avoided outright during the rainy season.

# Playa Bonita

Playa Bonita refers to a kilometre-long stretch of spectacular beach shore about 3 km west of the fishing and beach town of Las Terrenas in the Dominican Republic. The name appropriately translates to 'beautiful beach' because of the long curve of tan sand, scores of swaying coconut trees and aquamarine surf that is shallower and prettier than at Las Terrenas. Off the coast but well out of swimming distance are several small palm-lined islands.
There is no local community in Playa Bonita and the beaches here have far fewer people on them than those at nearby Las Terrenas. There is also far less traffic noise here. By car, Playa Bonita is reachable by a single road that turns off from the highway between Sanchez and Terrenas.

## Get in

There is usually a taxi and a couple of motoconchos at the Playa Bonita turnoff from the Sanchez-Las Terrenas highway. The cost to reach any of the hotels directly on the beach from that turnoff is US$10 by private taxi or $5 by motoconcho (sounds a little expensive - try negotiating if you have pesos).
Motoconchos also go to Play Bonita from anywhere in Las Terrenas. In September 2020, the standard price was RD$100 per person each way.
It is possible to walk to Playa Bonita from Las Terrenas, but not along the beach. You have to take the back roads, and it will take an hour or two.

Most of the Swedes then left Estonia and were replaced by war refugees from Ida-Viru county and Ingria.

# Sabratha

Sabratha is a UNESCO World Heritage Site on the Mediterranean Coast of Libya.

## Understand

Sabratha's port was established, perhaps about 500 BCE, as the Phoenician trading-post of Tsabratan. The port served as a Phoenician outlet for the products of the African hinterland. Following the Punic Wars, Sabratha became part of the short-lived Numidian kingdom of Massinissa before this was annexed to the Roman Republic as the province of Africa Nova in the 1st century BC. It was subsequently romanized and rebuilt in the 2nd and 3rd centuries CE. The Emperor Septimius Severus was born nearby in Leptis Magna, and Sabratha reached its monumental peak during the rule of the Severans, when it nearly doubled in size. The city was badly damaged by earthquakes during the 4th century, particularly the quake of 365. It fell under control of the Vandal kingdom in the 5th century, with large parts of the city being abandoned. It enjoyed a small revival under Byzantine rule, when multiple churches and a defensive wall (although only enclosing a small portion of the city) were erected. Within a hundred years of the Muslim invasion of the Maghreb, trade had shifted to other ports and Sabratha dwindled to a village.

## Get in

As of 2023, getting into Libya is difficult, and the Sabratha site only re-opened to tourism within the past few years. You will almost certainly need to be part of a guided tour.

## See

* Serapis temple
* Isis temple
* Christian basilica (from the time of Justinian)
* Roman dwellings
