Quepos is the main town of its canton on Costa Rica's Central Pacific coast, the service centre for Manuel Antonio and the hills and valleys around it. The district had a population of 21531 in 2022. Its harbour holds Marina Pez Vela, and Manuel Antonio National Park lies just south of town.
Living here. Quepos has the supermarkets, banks, schools, hardware stores and the regional public hospital that serve the surrounding area, and a small domestic airport with flights to San José. The Costanera highway links it to Jacó in the north and Dominical in the south. Many residents live in the hills behind town, in areas such as Naranjito, Londres and Portalón, where roads can be steep and gravel; neighbourhood water usually comes from community ASADA systems, so check the water letter before buying.
The coast and the forest. Manuel Antonio National Park protects beaches, rainforest and wildlife including squirrel monkeys, sloths and iguanas. The marina is a base for sport fishing and boat trips, and the rivers and waterfalls in the hills draw hikers. The wet season brings heavy afternoon rain, and the dry season runs from about December to April.
Land and building. Hillside land around Quepos ranges from small building lots in gated developments to farms and forest. Ask the municipality for a zoning certificate (uso de suelo) for any lot, check whether it borders protected forest or a biological corridor, and confirm access, water and electricity letters before you buy.
