Whale’s Tail and Ocean View Lot 5.3-Acre

Property overview

A 5.3-acre property in San Martín Norte on the Costa Ballena coastline, priced at $1,150,000, offers a direct sightline to the Whale's Tail at Marino Ballena National Park alongside sweeping panoramic ocean views. The lot sits just 3 minutes off Route 34, giving buyers convenient highway access without sacrificing the privacy and quiet that elevate a property from a house to a home. Key infrastructure is already in place: a legal water concession has been secured and electricity is available at the property, so the groundwork for construction is largely done before you break soil.

The topography works strongly in a builder's favor. A large, naturally flat building pad crowns the ridge — sufficient for a signature residence, an infinity pool, and a guest casita in a single cohesive design. Below the primary homesite, the remaining acreage rolls into secondary jungle well-suited to private walking trails. Toucans, scarlet macaws, and monkeys move through this corridor regularly, meaning wildlife becomes a feature of daily life rather than something you drive to see.

The surrounding Costa Ballena infrastructure is within easy reach: Uvita, Dominical, and the beaches of Marino Ballena National Park are all minutes away, along with the dining, services, and surf culture that define the Southern Zone. For buyers looking for a view lot that combines one of the region's most iconic vistas with genuine road access and ready utilities, this 5.3-acre parcel delivers on all counts.
