Proxi Mart Brasil

4.4(283 reviews)

About

Proxi Mart Brasil serves Costa Rica from Radial Colón in San José, Brazil. The doors open at 07:00 from Monday to Saturday and close at 22:00, while Sunday trading runs from 07:00 to 21:00.

A 4.4 out of 5 average across 283 reviews places it among the better-supported addresses of its kind in the capital. San José, Tamarindo, Santa Teresa, Manuel Antonio, Jacó, Puerto Viejo, La Fortuna and Monteverde all sit within reach, so the venue can be folded into a wider Costa Rica itinerary. Its position in San José puts it on the Central Valley side of the country.

Spanish is the official language, and Costa Rican Spanish is known for its use of vos and the phrase pura vida. Altitude shapes Costa Rica's weather, and the Central Valley and mountain towns are cooler than the coasts.

Costa Rica's terrain rises from two coastlines into a volcanic spine down the middle of the country. Rainfall patterns differ sharply between the two sides, so the timing of a visit matters depending on which coast you plan to see. Drivers here keep to the right, and buses linking the main towns carry most long-distance passengers. Costa Rica was part of the Spanish empire until independence in 1821, and coffee shaped its economy from the nineteenth century.
