Map Route : San José Airport to Playa Chiquita

Driving Instructions (4 hour drive in total):

FROM SAN JOSE through BRAULIO CARRILLO

From downtown San Jose, take " calle 3" ( 3rd street ) North and follow the signs for Limon. There is only one road all the way there, about 2.5 hour drive.

This route will take you through " Braulio carrillo National Park" the cloud forest area and very often you will hit some rain - but it is a gorgeous ride!!

When you get to Limon you will continue pass the cementery and you will start to come into a more populated area. Watch for signs for "Sixaola" or "Cahuita". At the light you will make a right hand turn at a small corner. After the turn and pass the small bridge is a stright road all the way.

From Limon Cahuita is about 45 min, and Puerto Viejo is half an hour more.

FROM SAN JOSE through TURRIALBA

This rute is a bit more complicated. Unfortunately during the rainy season may be the only way to get in. Non the less is a 5 hour drive highly atractive and full of picturesque scenery.

FIRST you need to find "Avenida Central" ( Central Avenue) NEXT follow east way. Signs will say "SAN PEDRO" later "CARTAGO". Once you enter CARTAGO look for signs that say " PARAISO" and "TURRIALBA" make sure you are on "Avenida 3" (3rd avenue) heading East.

Continue fallowing signs as you go till you get to "TURRIALBA". Once in TURRIALBA you will first see a sign that sais "CATIE" or "LIMON" or "SIQUIERRES". You want to head to "SIQUIERRES" and from then signs will say "LIMON" and than you are at same poit as above...down to Paradise.
