The Caribbean Port of Limón is the gateway to the Southern Caribbean Coast. It encompasses Cahuita National Park and Gandoca-Manzanillo National Wildlife Refuge. Many rivers feeding from the Talamanca Range create a lush biodiversity that is very different from other areas of Costa Rica. The reefs, consisting of thirty-five different coral species are home to manatee, dolphins and over a hundred species of fish.

The villages of Cahuita, Punta Uva and Puerto Viejo offer excellent accommodations, exciting Caribbean cuisine, and live reggae music into the night.

Puesto Viejo is home to mighty Salsa Brava, a wave that reaches forty feet high to challenge surfers. There are also excellent places for scuba diving, snorkelling or fishing. The palm studded golden sandy beaches are some of the most beautiful in the Americas .
