The buzzing coastal port town of Limon is an interesting enclave of Afro-Caribbean culture in the midst of Central America’s Latin belt. Consequently the city has become known for its alternative touristic offering, unique local character and a curious cocktail of creole and Costa Rican architecture.
Downtown the sprawling and attractive Parque Vargas is a wild an unkempt oasis of leaning palms and lazing sloths, while the myriad of museums and heritage buildings that line the streets near the port will usually form the backbone of any Limon travel guide itinerary.
During the high season the city becomes a popular stop off for cruise ships making their way through the Caribbean and in October many visitors come to sample the music, festivities and local energy of Limon Carnival. More adventurous visitors are attracted by the city’s place at the heart of one of Costa Rica’s wildest and most beautiful regions and just outside of town hiking opportunities abound in the coastal forests, high peaks, and mangrove swamplands.
