A day at the beach with a little shopping thrown in, what could be better! Don your swimsuit and take a dip, or bask on the beach and enjoy the view of Punta Cocles beach on our Costa Rica’s Caribbean area. To get there, relax on a pleasant 90-minute bus ride through Limon; surrounded by rainforest and a fantastic view of the mountains. At Punta Uva be welcomed by the friendly staff that will guide you, and take a moment to get ready for the beach. The diversity of the surrounding forest will amaze you and you may see wildlife so keep an eye open! Sloth, monkeys, and the brilliant Morpho butterfly are commonly sighted. 

While you enjoy your visit, feel free to request a snack: a sandwich, fresh fruit and beverages are available for your pleasure. Then a quick jaunt will take you into the town of Puerto Viejo with its distinctive Caribbean flair. Explore the market and admire the handicrafts, many made by local artisans, before returning to your ship.
