    Tourists and locals alike park at either end of the road bridge over the Tarcoles River in order to walk along the narrow footpaths on either side to peer down at these monsters on the river banks. These crocodiles are huge - the ones we saw were 10-15 feet in length.

    Puerto Viejo

    Posted by dougdo 14 August 2009

    This area has a great vibe: very laidback and friendly and a wonderful collection of beaches from calm snorkelling beaches to great surfing spots. Superb choice of accommodations and restaurants too. The website www.PuertoViejoSatellite.com has the most comprehensive information source for the area with info on transport, hotel, activity and more.
