As you come out of the small windy tight secret entrance you arrive at a final destination........So there you have it..... your own private beach! You have it all to yourself. No huge crowds, no crowded sandy areas. Just freedom! You have all the time to explore and enjoy all of this for your own. Well for me, it involved taking full advantage with a nice swim and a couple of wave jumps. No surfboard so I ran to jump right into the water!! I almost forgot to take my sandals off as I made it to the edge of the bright blue sea! I quickly flicked them off and got ready for a new experience!
Stepping in the water was a shock as it always is.....my feet anticipate the cold depths of the ocean but are met with a warm caress and pleasurable temperatures! The ocean with its calm and wild nature is something that always soothes my soul and relaxes me down to my core. There are a lot of things I enjoy in life and being in such a spectacular part of the world is one of them. Feelings I cant describe as I am more than waist deep and look back at the shore....my bike waving HI along the shoreline. I wave back and continue my exploration of blissful sensations. After a couple wave sessions I start to think that I am not wearing any sunscreen at all.....which starts to make me think about the last time I got sunburnt.....which then makes me think of the discomfort. As I unwillingly step out of the ocean I look along the beach and decide its time to ride!!
There is nothing more visually delicious than being on a beach surrounded by all of nature and being able to do whatever you want. I strapped a stick and camera to my bike and took off to just cruise around the beach and enjoy riding on one of the many beaches in Central America. Going back and forth, over the water crossings and on the sand flats I started to have more and fun and throw a little more and more wrist on it.Definitely had a great time out there with my girl, and we will be back one day for sure. Of course I gave her a good cleaning after, but it was all in good fun and definitely enjoyed another chance at riding on a private beach!!!!
My advice, link up with a local to show you the good spots! This beach was south of Dominical, Costa Rica.

Territorio de Zaguates - Costa Rica
Official Facebook Page , click here
Their Gofund me - Every little bit helps
If you are in Costa Rica, this is a place to visit without a doubt!!! A stones throw away from Heredia and San Jose!
With a day starting out riding up a curvy and newly paved road I was already enjoying the trip! Slowly creeping up mountainsides and small narrow bridge crossings, blind turns and all around great scenery I started to realize this is gonna be a better day than I could have imagined!
Pulling up to the front gate, pausing, then zooming past a great dirt and gravel road I was really starting to enjoy the atmosphere before me. I reached the top of the hill and I had to stop and just let the sensation of love set in!!! You dont need an offroad bike to get up there, BUT it does make it a lot more fun!
There were so many dogs just running freely and playing with everyone, having the time of their life! No judgement of their background, what breed, where they came from, or what they looked like. Over 700 stray dogs call this place home.....for me it seemed like heaven as a dog! Only took me a couple seconds to park my motorcycle and run to the hundreds of dogs to make some new 4 legged friends. I made a couple really close buddies that followed me around because I pet them in the right spot. I had a great conversation with Natalie and one of the owners Lya. Plenty of love to see from everyone that worked there and volunteered their time, it is not easy trying to leave there with clean clothes and why would you!!! There are hundreds of dogs to play with and run around with!! They are just looking for some love and yes you can adopt any of them if you like and its highly recommended. Me being on a motorcycle not sure how I would swing that, as well as seeing how I dont have a home to go back to, makes it hard to take that jump and be responsible for a traveling companion as much as I would want one! Nevertheless there is always a smiling doggy breath face nudging itself under your palm, or in the gap between your arm and rib cage, ready for a petting frenzy!! The place holds something special for me and it was great to see the mix and hear stories of where everyone came from! Great names, odd names, weird names, the staff has named every single one of these beings with a name to fit their character and or look! I think my favorite was Whiskers aka Vigotes. An older dog who was brought into the Territory and soon after taught hundreds of dogs how to dig holes to sit in while relaxing. I was told by Lya that before he showed up there weren't any holes,but when he came, it was short after there are holes everywhere haha Classic!
There were good back woods areas for the dogs to run around and chase each other, Bathing stations worked by volunteers and new comers alike. I was held back in awe to how clean the place was with over 700 dogs running around!!! Their poop was cleaned up, walkways and play areas free of debris giving the little furry friends a great place to just be themselves and enjoy the new life! They are always in need of help with funds. There is always a need for food, basic cleaning supplies, vaccinations, as well as vet help for sick or hurt dogs. They are currently trying to upgrade some of the facilities as well as complete 2 bathrooms for their visitors and staff, currently there is only one bathroom and its located in the caretakers home and it doesn't even have a door.
