Review:
Uvita, a quiet little village about 11 miles from Dominical in the South Pacific Region of Costa Rica is a features a slow, relaxed life, magnificent tropical forests and endless expanses of beaches. Uvita Beach is a wonderful vacation spot for those who prefer long walks on the sand over a busy nightlife. Tall stately palms provide welcome shade to sunbathers enjoying the fine white sands of Uvita beach.
The beach is perfect for surfing, swimming, snorkeling and diving. From May to October, the beach isa great place to watch magnificent Olive Ridley and Hawksbill turtles laying eggs in the sand before they return to the sea. The beach is also a good starting point for kayak trips to nearby mangroves which are full of birds, and to watch passing Humpback whales as they migrate from December and April.
