Traveler advice

Useful phrases

"Pura Vida"

Pura Vida is probably the most common phrase in Costa Rica. The literal meaning is "Pure life" but you'll hear the locals great you, say goodbyes and even answer your question "Como Estas?" with a Pura Vida <3
Don't miss

Rent a bike and visit the local beaches!

Best way to get around smoothly and sustainably at the caribe coast is by bike. You can rent bikes in town for a few dollars a day and go beach hopping down south of Puerto Viejo! Our favourite beaches would be Punta Uva and Arrecife, about 45 minutes bike ride from Puerto Viejo :)
