Why the Caribbean Coast?
The region presents good waves and white sand beaches, important coral reefs and prehistoric rain forest. The north has marshy lagoons and if we go south, we will find the Talamanca chain of mountains perforated by clouds. In addition, it is the zone of greater ethnic diversity of the country: Afro-Caribbean descendants and Chinese colonies can be found as well as native indigenes.
