A sun-sational day awaits on Puerto Viejo Beach, located on the Caribbean side, a scenic 90-minute motorcoach ride from port. Costa Rica's topography is one of the most diverse in the world. Rolling hills, high mountains, plains, valleys and riverbeds are just some of the gorgeous landscapes you'll see from the window as you make your way to Puerto Viejo Beach. Your spot on the sand is within a boutique hotel's beachfront property. Here, you'll settle on the sand, take a swim in the inviting turquoise waters and enjoy fruity beverages from the bar (at your own expense). Take a stroll to admire the natural beauty of this locale set against deep green forest vegetation and refresh with some seasonal fruit. Then, head on over to the funky and colorful Puerto Viejo Village, formerly a fishing village, where unique shops, surf shacks, and artisan boutiques are the perfect place to find a handcrafted memento of your day. Return to port on a relaxed drive.
