The most frequent and reliable transport services to the beaches around San Juan del Sur and beyond.
NOTE: CURRENTLY, ALL SHUTTLES REQUIRE A MINIMUM OF 4 PEOPLE FOR ALL LOCATIONS
We started running shuttles to the beaches long before the roads were improved. Over the years, we grew bit by bit and today, we effectively serve as the public transport system to surrounding beaches.
Our shuttles to Playa Maderas have no minimum and leave multiple times a day. The shuttle fleet is designed to accommodate both large and small groups and as many surfboards you can dream of.
Shuttles to Playa Hermosa (a secluded beach with rad amenities) and Remanso are also on offer often.
If you’ve got enough people or enough initiative to convince 5+ people, we’ll take you anywhere you want, anytime.
