Official tour of Puerto Viejo Costa Rica | Playa Negra | Cocles Beach | Center Puerto Viejo 🌴🇨🇷

[@siamiam4306]

Nice drive-by video.. I've traveling to Costa Rica several decades and finally made it to Puerto Viejo last December, and immediately fell in love with that zone. We loved and stayed at a villa in Playa Negra and have booked a house in Punta Uva for this October, as I understand the water is clearer and best time to go. As an aside - you have amazing beautiful skin.

Came across your channel on a search for a potential retirement hideaway. Thanks for the live drive. Now I need to get boots on the ground to experience the vibe.

I was about to write the same comment 😊. I can't wait to get there

I love how much respect you have for our country❤️‍🩹 Please keep sharing awareness on supporting local businesses. We are struggling with gentrification on some coastal areas😢 Be safe, and may God keep blessing your life! New subscriber.

I hope to go back to Puerto Viejo soon. Banana Azul has the best sangria 🤤. I usually stay at the Hidden Jungle Beach House just before town by the brewery (aka Kayas place). The sand on playa negra I just call hot as f**k. I've been many times last year 3 months off and on. You still point out places I don't pay attention to and regret. In Cocles usually stop on weekends for Take It Easy. Christin is so nice and the Caribbean chicken, I could eat every day. I then skip everything else until Playa Chiquita where I spend the most of my time.

[@FarangWithAChang]

Adding on to my comment as a vegetarian have you tried out Port Vell? The vegan Gallo Pinto OMG. I'm primarily a meat eater but I could live off this. The vegan place above the meat market is so ironic. Is that the chill co-working location? I'm sad that I'm not there and freezing my butt off at home.

[@jamesjones2173]

I will be in Puerto Viejo next week

[@pamjustsayin]

So nice to actually see video of Puerta Viejo instead of just being told about it on KZbin. I want to visit soon maybe eventually live there. Can anyone suggest how I can set up a trip and lodging thats not too complicated? I'm bringing myself and a family member who uses a wheelchair but gets around pretty good!

[@svenkovacic5062]

Just what I was looking for. Tour of the city vibe. Thanks

​@@sagemonroe5801 any tips on some facebook groups where it could be possible to find accommodation (for one month),and if that's safe option? Or better airbnb it and to pay more?

Love the video! I’ll will be there 3 weeks omg I can’t wait.

@ Hello, a little bit of work and vacation. Working on some species tagging and mapping.

[@ColliersDesignConsultingLLC]

Love it here! Wish the tour could’ve been slowed down a bit, the video breezed by a lot of things we could’ve glanced more at. Great video though!

[@mslydiaslife]

This was really good! I'm coming in January and it gives ideas of places to visit. Thank you for sharing!🥰

[@sagemonroe5801]

It was absolutely my pleasure. Thank you for your support. I would love if you joined the tribe by subscribing. I have so much more cotton on the way for you. I look forward to welcoming you to Costa Rica.

[@mslydiaslife]

I am!! Love your videos!🥰

[@NewPalm]

I came across Saranda Boutique while on a search of places to stay. I was totally inpressed with the pods style and can't wait to visit. I pray the good reviews keep up by the time I get there 🙏. Edit: I paused the video to comment on Saranda then googled the La Tribu Hostel and was like hold up, wait a minute...😂

[@StayDownUntilYouComeUp]

Beautiful video! Do you think we can just ask an instructor on the beach if we can ride horses or should we book ahead of time?

[@patrickrene3196]

Dope vodeo. Is the closest airport in San Jose?

[@SpiritHeartsSong]

Could you share more info on the African dance classes at the culture house? I’ll be there in august and would love to take a class! ❤

[@TameshiaWeaver]

What’s the average cost to get transportation from Playa Negro to the main part of Puerto Viejo. I found a cute apartment in Playa Negro, and, will not have my own transportation for a while, so, I’ll be biking it, taxi/uber, and walking. Thank you for this very informative video!

[@jessicaward1095]

What is the name of the salon you mentioned where you have your locs retwisted? Do you know if they do microlocs?

[@emily-js6gn]

Was it difficult to find gas for your scooter?

[@JourneywithMAMAZURI-hb8nr]

Sorry. See you next time. We just left. Stayed in central at the hostel.

[@zavata80]

How do I get there???

[@freedomjustus7539]

I'm planning on coming to Costa Rica in September and was wondering if San Jose is a good spot to fly in or where you go to see black people

[@sagemonroe5801]

There are two airports, one in Liberia and one in San Jose. It truly depends on where you’re staying that would determine where you should fly into. If you’re going to be on the Pacific coast then I recommend Liberia airport, but if you are coming to the Caribbean coast, where all the Black people are then I recommend San Jose, but keep in mind There is still a five hour shuttle to get you down to Puerto Viejo or the Limon province or you could also take a one hour flight to a non-international airport in Limon. Good luck.

[@AmorShaneeCaTiah]

@@sagemonroe5801 wow, is 5 hour the true transit Goddess ? From San Jose … cuz I’ve been told my bus ride would be only 2 hours 🫣… I wanna mk sure I’m prepared for a 5 hour ride after a 9 he flight🧡

[@Sacredalgebra]

Have you ever taken the flight? I drove last time, and am considering the flight. I haven’t heard or seen any videos on that 1 hour flight.

[@sagemonroe5801]

@@Sacredalgebra hey I actually haven’t! But I’ve heard it’s a rather smooth process. Also, it’ll only take you far as the city of Limon. You will then have to arrange transportation from limon center to Puerto, which may be like an hour and a half drive. Good luck
