Explore Puerto Viejo
Introduction
For a complete different feel of tropical paradise, rainforest, pristine beaches, clear waters and more, you won't want to miss out visiting the colorful southern Caribbean coast of Costa Rica.
The Caribbean coast is quite different than the Pacific as you will find it is not as nearly built up and the culture/atmosphere is even more laid back than other parts of Costa Rica.
Puerto
Viejo is an ideal location for laid back surfers and travelers looking to avoid the more commercialized Pacific coast. Local activities include surfing, snorkeling, scuba and much more.
