My Puerto Viejo will be a straight-talking English guide to Talamanca's coast road — the beaches from town to Manzanillo, when Salsa Brava actually breaks, rainy-season truths, and how to do the wildlife right. Built by the same one-person shop as My Escazú, and held to the same rule: verified information with sources, or nothing.
Meanwhile, the essentials
- Jaguar Rescue Center — the animal rescue in Playa Chiquita, 5 km south of town; book a tour rather than just showing up.
- SINAC — for Cahuita National Park (donation entry, coastal trail, reef) and the Gandoca-Manzanillo refuge.
- Cahuita NP is ~20 minutes north; the coastal trail runs about 8 km — start early, carry water, mind the tide.
