Playa del Alba

Playa del Alba was a location in Costa Rica's Caribbean Coast, located a few miles northeast of Puerto Limon. It contains Mangrove Forests and Coral Reefs to protect small fish in the area, and is a place where Sea turtles come to lay their eggs. It also contains a few coconut trees as well as a wooden dock. A buoy is also seen in the distance, as well as oil drums, logs, and balls.

Operation Peace Walker
Main Article In 1974, a mysterious armed force arrived in Costa Rica allegedly as part of CODESA, but was in actuality planning to set up the Peace Walker project. Snake arrived in Costa Rica to investigate their activities, as well as mostly to find out if The Boss is involved in these same activities as well. There were also some shooting targets on the beach, implying that the mysterious force: The Rogue CIA Unit called the Peace Sentinels, were nearby. Snake then blew up the gate connecting Playa del Alba with Bosque del Alba with a grenade and proceeded onwards.

Extra Ops 067: Date Paz
"Snake: How's Paz doing? OK so far. Still shocked about being lied to by Zadornov... But she's actually getting along great with the crew here at Mother Base. Snake: Really. That's good to hear. Miller: Still, it's got to be depressing for a girl like her age to be cooped up on an offshore plant all day, even if it is only temporary. I bet she'd love it if you took her out somewhere once in a while."
