Paradero La Amistad

4.6(564 reviews)

About

Found on Costa Rica, Paradero La Amistad is reached from San José, Tamarindo, Santa Teresa, Manuel Antonio, Jacó, Puerto Viejo, La Fortuna and Monteverde, with the Caribbean-side town of Limón as the nearest urban anchor.

The venue sits in Limón province, in the Crorina area on the country's Caribbean coast, away from the Pacific resorts that draw most visitors. A 4.6 out of 5 average from 564 reviews reflects steady approval from those who have made the trip. Its website at http://www.sinac.go.cr/ES/ac/aclap/pila/Paginas/default.aspx carries the official information.

Spanish is the official language, and Costa Rican Spanish is known for its use of vos and the phrase pura vida. Gallo pinto, rice and beans fried with onion and coriander, is the standard breakfast across the country.

Altitude shapes Costa Rica's weather, and the Central Valley and mountain towns are cooler than the coasts, so packing for both is worthwhile. Reaching the Caribbean side usually means a drive or bus from San José, and the journey is part of the trip.
