EPS hosted the children of Escuela Playa Blanca at our conservation station on Playa Blanca for a fun day of beach clean-up and afternoon of activities.
Long Term Goals: Playa Blanca located on the shores of the Gulf of Nicoya and the area has long been dependant on fishing to support the local economy.
