Annular Eclipse in Samara Beach, Costa RicaClick here or above for a large map of the eclipse path we're right there! Enjoy your breakfast and in the morning feel free to make final preparations for the eclipse, explore on your own, hang out on the beach, go on a hike or arrange an optional day trip with your hotel. We expect the centre line of the path of annularity to very closely intersect Samara Beach. Then watch the climax of the annular eclipse as the sun is less than one hour from sunset. Elevation of the sun will be about 11 degrees at the time of max eclipse (4:31pm). Come a day ahead and use the pre-eclipse time to plan or get acquainted with the neighbourhood. Enjoy the unique post eclipse sunset, dinner and join in the local festivities. A great opportunity to get to know Samara, its people and its beautiful beach. More Information:For the town of San Juanillo (85°:48' west; 9°:58´ north) on the Nicoya peninsula in the northwest of Costa Rica, where the central line meets mainland, the following is the chronograph of events for the contacts, the altitude and the azimuth of the sun. The Sun and the moon will be in the constellation Ophiuchus, one of the non zodiacal constellations through which the ecliptic runs. Mercury will be above the Sun and Venus farther below, but we will not be able to observe them. Sunset will be at 17 h: 17' local time and the beginning of the astronomical twilight for that day happens at 18h: 33'. Since we are in new moon, that day the moon is pretty close to the sun in the sky, it raises at 5h: 17' and sets at 17h: 19', the age is 29,2 days and its apparent diameter is 30': 8'', insufficient to cover the sun, that's why the eclipse is annular. At 4:32 p.m. the center of the eclipse will enter through Playa Ostional, just south of San Juanillo on the Nicoya Peninsula - well known for the huge arrivals of the green turtle- with the sun at an altitude of 11° above the horizon (a little higher than the North Star as we see it from the latitude of Costa Rica). The annular phase of the eclipse will last for 3 minutes and 19 seconds (the same time along the central line for all the Costa Rican territory), which is very good in comparison with the 3 minutes and 48 seconds at the maximum in the Pacific Ocean. The annular phase can be seen from all the cities and towns located between the northern and southern limits, such as Tamarindo, Playas del Coco, Santa Cruz, Liberia, Filadelfia, Cañas, Tilarán, Puntarenas, Naranjo and Alajuela, but it will last for a shorter time, because they are not along the central line, as shown in the map. San José is practically on the southern limit, Cartago and Limón are out of the annularity band, the same as San Isidro, Golfito and all the southern region of the country. In the north, La Cruz and the Santa Elena peninsula are also out. All the previous cities will experience only a partial eclipse.
Playa Sámara - 2nd National Triathlon
Ready, Set, Go ...The residents of Playa Sámara and the Costa Rican Triathlon Federation organized an important sports event of high class on one of the country's most beautiful beaches. The 2nd National Triathlon took place in Playa Sámara. This year's competition was not only part of the National Championship, but also the elimination for the National Games 2002 in Nicoya. Last year, over 70 athletes participated in the National Triathlon and an even higher number of competitors was expected this year as it pleased all participants and is highly awaited by the athletes. Finally 3 times as many athletes showed up at the Start for the Sámara Triathlon. Even the Gods showed mercy: Petrus pleasing the competitors with a bright sunny day in the midst of the rainy season and Neptun holding back the fierce waves of the high tide. At 10.00 a.m., some 250 athletes threw themselves into the sea to initiate the Sámara-Triathlon, which at the same time was the qualification for the National Games Nicoya 2001, taking place next March. For the first time teams of 3 athletes were officially permitted to participate, where one athlete has to cover the swimming part, one the bicycle and the third the running part. In this category the "local" team from Nicoya won the gold medal. CONGRATULATIONS!
