Review & FAQ:
Located about five miles from the lively town Puerto Viejo on the scenic Caribbean coast, the quiet beach at Punta Uva is famous for calm waters, fine white sand and magnificent reefs. Relaxed and quiet, the beach is perfect for those who want to commune with nature, teach kids to swim, snorkel to the reefs or stroll through the surrounding jungle to see monkeys and many kind of birds.
There are no golf courses or fancy resorts - as most of the area is part of the Gandoca-Manzanillo Wildlife Refuge. However, there is breathtakingly beautiful nature, quaint charming hotels and lodges, and avwonderful mix of people of all colors and national origins.
