The best thing to order in Costa Rica, other than rice and beans, is a smoothie or any drink with fruit. There are a ton of exotic kinds like starfruit or guava, and they're all amazing!
After lunch, we walked across the busy street to an ice cream shop, eating another delicious snack- galleta ice cream. After this we had a three hour drive to Uvita, a beautiful village right by the beach.
Rustic Pathways has a base house at the top of a hill in this village, where we stayed for the next four nights.
Our rooms were great, but we would not have survived without the fan due to the insane humidity!
For the next three days, we would go surfing on this amazing beach right next to the lush rainforest. Our two surf instructors, Paulo and Gerald taught us everything we needed to know to ride the waves! For four hours a day we got to surf in the warm waters watching the gorgeous sun set on the ocean.
The surfing in Costa Rica was incredible- huge waves and the perfect temperature water; also it was pretty shallow, making it super easy to get to the better waves!
It was really the best place to spend your afternoon in the village of Uvita. With the tall, green palm trees on one side and the gorgeous sun setting through the clouds on the waves on the other side- it was perfect and even more fun to surf in with this great setting.
