Morrillo Beach Resort
Whether you want to learn to surf at beginner beach, surf the famous Morrillo break, see the many beautiful waterfalls of the area, explore the Cerro Hoya National Park, or experience a deeper cultural connection, we can take you there!
Currently there are no visitors facilities further south, between Morrillo, Arenas and Flores where the paved road ends. A few tiny stores and restaurants catering to locals can be found along the road. The gas station in Arenas burned down. There is a gas station in Mariato, but it is often closed and fuel costs considerably more than elsewhere. Fill up your vehicle at the Terpel station in Atalaya, just to be safe!
