Puerto Viejo
Costa Rica · Central America
Puerto Viejo feels alive. It hits weather, movement, and local-beach-town energy, though the long-term fit depends on how much structure and ambition you need around you.
Operational notes
2-8 weeks
Beach-town surf access paired with broader outdoor living
Lifestyle-first surfers rather than pure performance surfers
Compact but loose
Usable for building, but quality depends on where exactly you set up
Middle of the pack: not cheap enough to ignore tradeoffs, not expensive enough to kill the upside
Best when you want nature and rhythm more than perfect infrastructure
