Mar Caribe > Cahuita, Puerto Viejo


One last post is I'll I may have time for. Internet is really expensive in Puerto Viejo.
The surf isn't great, but the Caribbean has a totally different feel to it. Sort of a little Jamiaca.

Sadly, I decided to sell my surfboard yesterday for $100. The decision was based on exorbinent airline fees to the tune of $200 to get the board home. So I let it go to a very eager ozzie, and so ends my Costa Rican surfing career. I had a pretty good run though, 14 days of surfing...

Today I'm hiking 8km though Caihuita's National park on the coast. I'll be in San Jose tomorrow and hopefully will have a little more time to write.


Update on 12-06:
The national park was incredible. In about 2 hours of hiking I saw 2 sloths, a yellow tree snake, lizards, and howler monkeys all over the place! All kinds of wildlife and well worth the walk.
