Best Places to Visit on Costa Rica's Caribbean Coast in 2025

"If I wanted a pristine beach to lounge away the days, I'd head to tiny Punta Uva between Puerto Viejo and Manzanillo, where local laws limit development near the shore so the beach stays uncrowded—it's perfect for swimming and surfing and is truly one of the most beautiful beaches in the country." - Matthew Kepnes
