Quepos is the gateway to Manuel Antonio National Park. There are numerous bars and restaurants in the city, and a vivacious nightlife. Located fewer than 100mi from San José, on the Central Pacific coast of Central America, are the very popular towns of Quepos and much smaller Manuel Antonio. The town is named for the native Quepoe that inhabited the place in the colonial era. A picturesqe town with a small bit of the colonial era wall left. Excellent area bus service.
