Youths Plant 200 Palm Trees on Guiones Beach
By Hayleen Noguera
 

Several kids from the area planted two hundred palm trees on Guiones Beach with the intention of giving a new and improved appearance to the visited tourist destination.

This it is not the first time trees have been planted at Guiones. Some time ago, students of the Nosara High School had been given the task of planting palm trees, but as time passed the trees mysteriously disappeared.

Mr. Jairo Mora, who coordinated the tree planting in May, said that “this project is to beautify the beach and I expect that the associations and hotels are worried, and they have united in order to have the best beach possible”.

“We want to draw the attention of the residents and visitors of this place” Mora added. He hopes to see the town’s reaction and contribution, since the beach is ours “we should all collaborate with the cleaning and beautification, as it is our tourist attraction,” he concluded.

Letter to the Editor – Response to the article “Help Protect the Turtles by Swimming with them”

Dear Editors,

While I am sure it is well-intentioned, as a marine biologist/conservationist and member of the IUCN/SSC Marine Turtle Specialist Group, I have to say that the aforementioned article is both misleading and dangerous for turtle conservation. Under no circumstances should tourists be interacting physically with turtles during the mating process, and less so with people that are untrained in sea turtle biology and ecology. More >

New Spanish School in Nosara offers courses for foreign residents

“I don’t speak Spanish” is a phrase that you might expect to hear in Nosara from a visiting Tourist, but it is more often used by many of Nosara’s long term residents who speak little or no Spanish. As the number of foreign residents moving to Nosara increases, so does the need for a spanish education program for residents. Aspiring to meet that need, The Nosara Spanish Institute (NSI) will be opening its doors on June 7th, located within the community on Playa Pelada. More >
