Puerto Vargas beach
Ultimate guide (August 2023)
Puerto Vargas - beach in
Cahuita national park in the Caribbean coast of Costa Rica. Keep in mind that there are two quite different beaches in park. First, you'll get to rather mediocre beach called
Playa Blanca. Most people stay here and feel happy. However, we recommend not to be lazy and walk to a much more elegant Puerto Vargas beach, located in the south-eastern part of the park. Ask locals for direction. Shore and seabed: sand.
