The Nosara area now has 3G mobile phone service, which means improved phone and internet service for visitors and residents alike. The telephone and power company, ICE, installed a new tower in the EE section above Playa Guiones, also known as Las Huacas mountain, and service is available from downtown Nosara to as far as Barco Quebrado to the south.
3G, or Third Generation International Mobile Telecommunications Services, includes wide-area wireless voice telephone, video calls, and wireless data. Visitors will need to ensure that their plan allows for international roaming. Current ICE customers will need to upgrade to 3G phones. The old tower remains in service, but its signal doesn’t consistently reach some areas of the American Project.
