Punta Uva Beach

Reviewed By Shakirak2013

This beach was calm and beautiful with moderate waves. Even though so popular there were no crowds and we went for long long walks in the morning. There were all kinds of beautiful tress since the rain forest is there and besides palm trees there were many ancient tress, We saw a 400 year old tree in the forest nearby on a hike. There were all kinds of flowering trees and plants: Hibiscus, ginger and many trees I do not know. There were a lot of birds and the chirping was truly amazing to here in the early morning. We could identify many birds. There was a river closeby and we went kayaking in it and it was lots of fun. Would love to go back there. Very peaceful, idyllic and serene

Playa Manzanillo

Reviewed By beachl2015 - Ontario, Canada

Manzanillo Beach became one of our favourite beaches in all of Costa Rica. It is a great beach for taking long walks on, it has soft, white sand, and it is great for swimming (especially along the main stretch in town). A special surprise was getting sunsets which isn't too common on the Caribbean coast.

Puerto Viejo Beach

This public beach is popular with surfers.

Reviewed By macmarill - Colorado Springs, United States

We were 200 meters from the playa niegra beach part of the Puerto Viejo beach and in early January they have some big waves. The sand where we were was black. The beach was clean except the part that is situated alongside the road. They need trash cans for people to leave their trash, otherwise the water is warm and clean.

Playa Negra

Reviewed By 6coondawgs - Ogden, United States

We stayed just north of playa Negra at La Piscina Natural. The beach here is beautiful and not busy. We were the only people on the beach when we walked and had a picnic on the beach. We saw sloths along the road to playa Negra from Cahuita.

Playa Negra

Reviewed By chickandbeast - Southgate, Canada

An amazing dark volcanic sand beach with outcroppings of jagged volcanic rocks at low tide. We were lucky to live in this part of Costa Rica in a Casita at the Playa Negra Yoga Retreat for part of our trip. The unpaved road leading to the beach had trees filled with playful monkey at feeding time just before sunset. The sunsets were spectacular. surfers paradise too

Playa Bonita

Reviewed By MindiB_11 - Scotts Valley, United States

We didn't spend much time here, but I thought it was a great beach. The waves were really big the day we were there. So I didn't spend much time in the water. Just walking around and enjoying the warm weather was a treat! Lots of families were at the beach playing, eating and having fun.
