Playas del Coco

Bus: There are buses that travel the roads between Coco and nearby beaches, but they are often crowded and uncomfortable.

Taxi: Depending on the season, from a handful to far too many to count local taxis will take you around Coco, as well as to nearby beaches, for anywhere from $2-10 dollars per trip. If you're only in Coco for a few days and don't want to invest in a rental car, this is your best option.

Rental Car: This is the best way to tour Coco and surrounding areas, and essential if you plan on staying more than a few days. It's recommended that you rent a 4x4, but a 4x4 is not necessary if you're a careful and competent off-road driver who understands the limitations of a car.

If you rent a car, you should be aware that all rental cars are easily identifiable by locals rental cars use a different type of license plate. Therefore, you should NEVER leave any valuables unattended in your rental car, as they are constantly targeted by thieves. Also, local police can instantly identify a rental car and will not hesitate to pull over a tourist for speeding, so follow the speed limit closely.
