The vibrant beach area of Nosara, Costa Rica will host one of the country's most important music festivals from April 16-18, 2015 called the Caricaco Festival. The festival takes its name from the Spanish word for hermit crab, which are commonly seen on Nosara's beaches. This year's festival will feature more musical groups than previous years, including big Costa Rican bands like Passiflora, Sonambulo, Alphabetics, 424 and Cocofunka. The L'acqua Viva Resort & Spa is recommended as a place to stay during the festival as it is located between the coastal foothills and Playa Guiones beach.
