For those who love pristine beaches, fishing, diving, surfing and snorkelling, Costa Rica’s Caribbean coast is a little-visited paradise. The region has a laid back attitude and the unique blend of Latino, Afro-Caribbean and Bribri indigenous culture creates an atmosphere rich in fragrances, tropical rhythms and brilliant colours.

As well as stunning beaches, there is great marine wealth, green lagoons, imposing rivers, wide canals and wildlife refuges.
