What do I need to know before moving to Nosara?

"Nosara is a popular destination for expats, known for its beautiful beaches, lush jungles, and laid-back lifestyle. Before moving to Nosara, it's important to understand the cost of living can be high compared to other parts of Costa Rica, due to its popularity among tourists and expats. The official language is Spanish, so learning the language will make daily life and integration into the community easier. The healthcare system in Costa Rica is highly rated, but it's recommended to have private health insurance for more immediate and comprehensive care. The climate in Nosara is tropical, with a dry season from December to April and a rainy season from May to November. It's important to be prepared for this, especially the high humidity levels. While Nosara is generally safe, petty crime such as theft can occur, so it's important to take standard precautions to protect your belongings. The infrastructure in Nosara is not as developed as in some other areas, so be prepared for dirt roads and occasional power outages. Public transportation is limited, so having a car can be beneficial, but be aware that the import taxes on vehicles are high. The local cuisine is a mix of traditional Costa Rican food and international dishes, with a focus on fresh, local ingredients. Finally, it's important to respect the local customs and environment, as Nosara is known for its strong sense of community and commitment to conservation," commented one expat who made the move to Nosara, Costa Rica.
