Luxury holidays in Limón Province
Limón Province encapsulates 125 miles of coastline stretching along Costa Rica’s Caribbean shores from Nicaragua to Panama. The prevalence of reggae music and Jamaican-spiced cuisine are cherished legacies of the area’s Afro-Caribbean heritage. Limón, aka Puerto Limón, is the region’s beating heart, but its wild beaches and abundant flora and fauna are the province’s main attractions. Two national parks top and tail Limón Province, home to coral reefs, turtle nesting sites, mangroves and rainforest riven with waterways. The cloudforest-covered Talamanca Mountains mark the area’s southern border.
