When people hear the name “Tárcoles”, they automatically think of the river and crocodiles. But what about the town and its surroundings? A drive through the town sends you on paved roads and dirt roads, going north towards the river or south towards the town entrance with its crocodile sign in prominent view from the highway. Who would guess this unassuming seaside village would have so many attractions? The beaches, the crocodile river tours, the estuary teaming with birds, the Manantial de Agua waterfall, botanical gardens, a large resort, and hotels with jungle, river, and ocean views are all in the district of Tárcoles. With highway access so convenient, the towns of #Herradura and# Jaco are only a few minutes away. Add the fact that the port of Puntarenas is just to the north, cruise ship shore excursions also inject commerce into the area. The only thing that may elude you is Internet service that you can rely on.  

But In 2022, the government named the internet service provider, Itellum as the first satellite internet provider for Costa Rica. Shortly after that, the company began its quest to bridge the digital divide between urban areas and rural areas that suffer from intermittent service or no connection at all.
