About

Look for Opticas Vives in Costa Rica for local business purposes, with the address at 125m oeste de la Basílica de los Ángeles, Av. 1 del Comercio, Provincia de Cartago, Cartago, Costa Rica. First-time visitors should expect a local business rather than a large chain outlet, and the setting in Cartago places it in the country's old colonial heartland.

Visitors have given Opticas Vives a 4.2 out of 5 average from 5 reviews, so the record rests on a small but positive sample. Two photographs accompany the listing, and Cartago sits inland from the coastal resorts that draw most of the country's visitors.

Reaching the business from the main resorts involves travelling inland to Cartago, since San José and the Central Valley towns sit on the same road network. San José is the nearest of the nearby places, with Tamarindo, Santa Teresa, Manuel Antonio, Jacó, Puerto Viejo, La Fortuna and Monteverde spread further afield.

The venue sits in Cartago, in the Central Valley, where the altitude keeps temperatures cooler than on the coasts. Costa Rica packs cloud forest, rainforest and dry tropical forest within a short drive of one another. Green and leatherback turtles nest on the Caribbean beaches, and olive ridleys arrive at Ostional in mass nestings. The country was part of the Spanish empire until independence in 1821, and coffee shaped its economy from the nineteenth century.
