  • Deep Sea Drilling Project Initial Reports Volume 84
    37. A TECTONIC CROSS-SECTION OF THE COSTA RICAN PACIFIC LITTORAL AS A KEY TO THE STRUCTURE OF THE LANDWARD SLOPE OF THE MIDDLE AMERICA TRENCH OFF GUATEMALA1 Jacques Azema, Jacques Bourgois, Peter O. Baumgartner, Jean Tournon, Alain Desmet, and Jean Aubouin2 ABSTRACT Pre-upper Senonian basement of Costa Rica crops out in the Santa Elena and Nicoya peninsulas. From south to north and from base to top the basement includes the Esperanza, Matapalo, and Santa Elena units. The Esperanza unit is Albian-Santonian in age and consists mainly of pillow basalt and massive basalt flows. The Matapalo unit includes Callovian-Cenomanian radiolarite and exhibits a massive basalt flow, pillow basalt, and dolerite basement. The Santa Elena unit contains ultramafic and mafic rocks in which harzburgite is the major component. The most important tec- tonic features of the Nicoya Complex are the large Santa Elena and Matapalo nappes. Nappe emplacement was from north to south during late Santonian time. The sedimentary cover of the Nicoya Complex comprises (1) the Campanian El Viejo Formation, which consists of shallow-water sediments to the north on Santa Elena Peninsula and the Campa- nian-Maestrichtian Sabana Grande Formation of deep-water origin to the south on Nicoya Peninsula; (2) Paleocene sediments, which indicate deposition in a deep-water environment and which comprise the Rivas, Las Palmas, and Samara formations; and (3) post-upper Eocene(?) sediments, which consist of the shallow-water Barra Honda and Montezuma formations. Two unconformities are the major geologic features of the upper Senonian-Tertiary sequence of Costa Rica. The lower one is at the base of the Sabana Grande Formation and marks a major change in the geologic conditions (basalt is scarce in the Campanian-Tertiary series); the upper unconformity at the base of the Barra Honda and Montezuma formations is not as pronounced as the lower one.

  • Impact of Tourism Related Development on the Pacific Coast of Costa Rica Summary Report
    Impact of Tourism Related Development on the Pacific Coast of Costa Rica Summary Report By: Martha Honey Erick Vargas William H. Durham Center for Responsible Travel A Nonprofit Research Organization Stanford University and Washington, DC www.responsibletravel.org April 2010 1 Foreword The following Summary Report, based on two years of research and some two dozen individual studies by a team of Costa Rican and U.S. experts, offers the first multidimensional analysis of the phenomena that Costa Ricans have dubbed “residential tourism.” While this term has become popular, most Costa Ricans have had little understanding of its dimensions and implications for the country, the country’s Pacific coast, or Costa Rica’s tourism industry. The study traces the origins of this coastal transformation from the 1970s to the present, with particular focus on the real estate and construction boom and bust (caused by the global economic crisis) from 2002 through 2009. As members of the Advisory Committee that has assisted the research team, we believe that the study’s findings and recommendations can play a constructive role in helping to foment public discussion, civic engagement, and policy reforms to ensure a sustainable economy in coastal and marine tourism. Over the last decade, Costa Rica’s Pacific coast has become one of the epicenters in the Americas for rapid beach resort and vacation home development closely tied to the U.S. market. Together with cruise ship tourism, residential tourism is transforming swaths of the physical landscape and displacing or competing for resources with many fishing, farming, and ranching communities in the coastal zone.

  • The Peninsula of Nicoya and Help to Understand What Really Awaits You, When You Choose to Live Here
    NEWSLETTER 12/2018 Dear friends and followers, This time we would like to present the Peninsula of Nicoya and help to understand what really awaits you, when you choose to live here. Try out your personal Peninsula “checklist” below. Of course we also show some of our best real estate opportunities in the area. Do not hesitate to contact us, even if you don’t find the 100% match. We usually have more alternatives than the ones published. Thank you for following us and hope to keep you interested in Costa Rica and its fantastic way of living. We wish you a good start and a successful year 2019! Your CostaRica-Immo Team The Peninsula of Nicoya The Nicoya Peninsula is the largest of Costa Rica, bathed by the Pacific Ocean, bounded by the Gulf of Papagayo to the north and Nicoya to the south. On its large coast line you can find beaches of fine and gray sands, cliffs, deserted bays, estuaries and many more. Dense tropical vegetation alternates with cattle grazing on hilly farmland. It has some of the most isolated and beautiful beaches, several national parks and a longer summer season, making it one of the most popular tourist destinations. The Peninsula is still kind of a remote paradise in many parts, although there are some well-known and busier spots like Tamarindo or Samara. But most areas – especially in the south -are still dominated by rural mountain hamlets or sleepy villages dispersed on the natural and unspoilt coast. You can find a small place to eat and a mini super for emergency purchases in most of the villages, but don’t count on a wide choice of restaurants, a gas station or an international school next door.
