Playa Grande, Marino Las Baulas National Park, Guanacaste, Costa Rica — Once a month, the full moon dips into the waves of the pacific as the sun rises over the upper beach. Creatures of the beach begin to stir. Pelicans glide in formation. Buff surfers catch the last of the break, while an older gentleman tries his luck hand-lining for fish in the surf. Last Sunday he caught a 25 pound snook. As the sands dry, crabs dig their way to the surface, grain by grain. The soothingly eternal waves await the next full moon.
