Playas del Coco and Playa Hermosa from the air

I have shown a few aerial photos of the approach to the international airport in Liberia during the last few days. Here is a photo as the airliner crosses the Costa Rican coast.

Below in the foreground is Playas del Coco and the cove and beach just to the north is Playa Hermosa. North of Playa Hermosa is Playa Panama, which is barely visible in this photo.

I will start a series tomorrow to show photos of Playa Hermosa. I showed a series of photos of Playas del Coco several months ago. This photo shows how condos have been built up in the hills around these Costa Rican beach towns to take advantage of the views of the ocean.

This week we are showing photos of Torres del Paine National Park in Patagonia, near the southern tip of Chile, on our Viva la Voyage travel photo site.
