Caribbean Style

If you are on a Caribbean cruise, stopover at Puerto Limon with its vibrant Afro-Caribbean culture and exotic tropical beauty. A major seaport for trade and commerce, Puerto Limon is close to the Cahuita National Park, the Tortuguero National Park, the Gandoca Manzanillo Wildlife Refuge and the colorful town of Puerto Viejo de Talamanca.

Considered to be among the most scenic regions in the entire country, a stopover here offers visitors a plethora of activities to engage themselves in like horseback tours, canopy tours, wildlife exploration and surfing. With its nearness to the United States, the Panama Canal and the Gulf of Mexico, this port is open to many cruise line companies from all over the world.

The important Pacific coast ports of Costa Rica are Puntarenas and Caldera. Most people who travel to San Jose usually enter the country via Puntarenas. Caldera is the main port of this region and is the busiest port in Costa Rica. From either of these two ports you can visit the lovely Manuel Antonio National Park, the biologically intense Corcovado National Park, or head on from here to the lovely Nicoya Peninsula, home to some the country’s best beaches.
