Puerto Viejo de Talamanca is a laid-back Caribbean town where reggae, rice and beans and bicycles are the rhythm. Black-sand and white-sand beaches stretch south, and the jungle runs down to the sea, with sloths and monkeys in the trees. The area has a number of small, eco-minded lodges.
The Caribbean coast is often driest in September and October. Mosquito repellent is useful, and biking is the best way around.
