Route Overview

The route from Paquera Ferry to Cabuya begins at the Paquera Ferry Terminal in Puntarenas Province, where travelers arrive after crossing the Gulf of Nicoya from Puntarenas. From Paquera, the drive continues across the southern Nicoya Peninsula through rural roads, the Tambor corridor, and the Cóbano area before heading toward Montezuma and Cabuya.

Cabuya is located beyond Montezuma near the southeastern tip of the Nicoya Peninsula. It is close to Cabo Blanco Absolute Natural Reserve and is known for its quieter atmosphere, coastal roads, local lodging, and nature-focused stays. The final part of the route can include slower roads, curves, unpaved sections, dust in the dry season, and muddy conditions during rainy months.

Private transportation is especially useful because public transportation to Cabuya can be less direct than routes to larger towns. Costa Rica Shuttles Bus can coordinate private pickup from the Paquera side and provide direct service to your final address in Cabuya.

What Makes This Route Unique

This route begins after the Puntarenas to Paquera ferry crossing, one of the main access points between Costa Rica’s central Pacific region and the southern Nicoya Peninsula. Once travelers arrive in Paquera, they still need a land transfer across the peninsula to reach Cabuya.

The drive passes through Cóbano, a key connection town for Montezuma, Santa Teresa, Mal País, and Cabuya. After Cóbano, the route becomes more rural and coastal as it approaches Montezuma and continues toward Cabuya.

Cabuya is more remote and quieter than Montezuma or Santa Teresa, so exact drop-off coordination is important. A private transfer helps travelers reach eco-lodges, villas, beach houses, private rentals, and properties near Cabo Blanco without relying on multiple local transport connections.

Schedule and Pickup
