The Bash has always taken place in Jaco, which is a 2 hour drive from San Jose, and close to some great surfing spots (the last nights party always takes place at one of the most popular surfing beaches in the country).

I dont understand why anyone would want to live in costa rica and be not on the coast. Is this true ?

For many years, there was no decent broadband on the coast... That enough keeps us inland. Also, the beach towns weren't really set up for residential living (the staff who work in tourist locations usually live 30 minutes inland in extremely small villages with no amenities)... Living at the beach still isn't very cost effective, you could live in Florida for less and get more.
With every year they build more and more condos and stuff and most the beach towns have decent broadband coverage, but after living in the city for 4 years I'm pretty used to it here and am happy going to the coast on the weekends or whatever.
