Costa Rica Guide
Limón Province and the Caribbean coast
Cahuita village
Head down the paved Hwy-36, which runs from Limón to Sixaola on the Panamanian border, 43km southeast of Limón and you'll come across the tiny village of CAHUITA. Pay attention, as the turn-off signage is by no means blatant. Like other villages on the Talamanca coast, Cahuita has become a byword for relaxed, inexpensive Caribbean holidays, with a laid-back atmosphere and great Afro-Caribbean food, not to mention top surfing beaches further south along the coast. Close to the village, the largely marine PARQUE NACIONAL CAHUITA was created to protect one of Costa Rica's few living coral reefs; many people come here to snorkel and take glass-bottomed boat rides.
