Best Beaches

This collection covers the Caribbean coastline of Limón, stretching from Cahuita National Park to the Gandoca-Manzanillo Wildlife Refuge. These beaches are characterized by their proximity to dense tropical rainforests and offshore coral reefs. Playa Cahuita and Playa Manzanillo sit within protected conservation areas, while Punta Uva and Playa Chiquita offer calm, reef-protected swimming areas. The region is notable for its biodiversity, with howler monkeys and sloths frequently sighted in the canopy bordering the sand.
