Let’s set the stage: You’re planning your trip in Tamarindo and you’ve been looking for the best way to explore the area. Your best bet? A scooter/motorcycle rental by Ohana Rental Tamarindo. The Honda Navi is the perfect vehicle that checks every box.

With a 50 mile (80km) range, it is the perfect scooter for exploring Tamarindo and the surrounding playas. Here’s a list of the best places to visit on the Honda Navi scooter:


  1. Playa Langosta: Located just 1.5 miles (2km) south of Tamarindo, Playa Langosta is a beautiful and secluded beach that is perfect for swimming, sunbathing, and surfing. There are many hidden pockets of isolated beaches that one must explore!
  2. Las Baulas National Marine Park: Just 10 Miles (16km) away from Tamarindo, Las Baulas National Marine Park is home to one of the largest nesting sites for leatherback turtles in the world.  Use the scooter to intimately explore the park on your own to see these magnificent creatures in their natural habitat
  3. Playa Avellanas: Just 12 miles (19km) south of Tamarindo, Playa Avellanas’s call to fame is a surfer's paradise, home to some  of the best waves in the area. Take a break from the waves anytime to enjoy a delicious meal at Lola's, a local spot with a laid-back vibe and stunning ocean views and breeze.
  4. Playa Flamingo: Head 12 miles (23km) north from Tamarindo to Playa Flamingo, where pristine white sand beaches meet crystal clear waters. The sunset in this area is especially social media worthy.
  5. Tamarindo: The best way to get around Tamarindo would be using a scooter, this helps you to avoid traffic and the hassles of parking. There’s nothing more romantic or memorable than the fresh sea breeze on your face!

One important factor that is often overlooked is that there is only 1 gas station in town and it is 5 miles (8km) from downtown Tamarindo. It’s highly recommended that you plan your journey in advance to ensure that you have enough fuel to explore the areas.
