A “Kelly typical” Saturday night out in Nosara

No one stays home on a Saturday night in Nosara; no matter how early you need to get up on Sunday morning for surfing, yoga or church.  In fact, last night, a troop of us did the whole Saturday Night circuit of the Nosara nightlife/party scene and the beautiful people were out en masse…starting with swank cocktails at the chill, sophisticated beach-front lounge, La Luna, in Playa Pelada.   Then, we all stopped by El Fenix for some Guaro-inspired sangrias.

After El Fenix, we jumped into The Hulk (my green monster truck) and joined the party at Café Lounge @ Kaya Sol—my gal, Holly, was jamming with a full reggae/jazz ensemble and the floor was packed with Nosara’s gorgeous people (and I have photos to prove it!)

After Café Lounge, we popped into La Banana because, frankly, DJ Paul Costa is my fave local DJ…he had us dancing to everything from old skool funk to ABBA to Michael J—classic dance floor hits mixed with a little urban beats.

Look at the watch…what?!  It is only midnight?!  Well, let’s go to Tropicana!  So the caravan sets off to centro Nosara to the largest dance hall in Nosara.  Loving DJ Pina’s reggae, latin, house, big beat and splashes of techno.  A typical Saturday night in Nosara can end anywhere from 2:30 AM to 4 AM (depending if you decide to go to the beach after all the clubs close!)

Anyway, know that Saturday night is not the only hot night out in Nosara, we even have fun on school nights over here on the beach…get ready for the grand opening of El Fenix @ Refugio del Sol (right across from Pancho’s on Playa Pelada), this coming Wednesday, DEC 9…the Kingo Lovers (Costa Rican reggae band from San Jose) will be performing…show starts at 8 pm…2000 colones cover.  Everyone and their cousin will be there.
