Life in Manzanillo: Authentic Caribbean Nature at the End of the Road

Located at the southernmost tip of Costa Rica’s Caribbean coastline, Manzanillo is celebrated for its laid-back fishing village character, golden-sand beaches, and crystal-clear turquoise bays protected by living coral reefs.

As the gateway to the Gandoca-Manzanillo National Wildlife Refuge, this corner of the coast offers some of the highest biodiversity in Central America. Days here are spent snorkeling along calm reef flats, paddleboarding calm coastal waters, and walking scenic coastal trails leading to secluded coves like Punta Mona. The village retains a quiet, close-knit Afro-Caribbean culture, local seafood spots, and an unhurried daily pace, while remaining just a picturesque 15-minute drive from the cafes, boutiques, and nightlife of Puerto Viejo.
