Puerto Limon, Costa Rica

January 8, 2025

This morning we anchored at Puerto Limon in Costa Rica. As we had visited this city before, we took our time to have breakfast before we walked off the boat. It was pouring rain and 28 deg C when we arrived on the dock. We were greeted on the dock by a brass band belting out reggae songs one after the other.

It was not a great day to visit today, as there were 2  Royal Caribbean cruise ships anchored next to our boat. In order to get to the street we had to walk through a market where local vendors were selling their merchandise. With 3 cruise ships in town, what made it a perfect day for pick pockets. We wandered through the town checking out the stores and local highlights, like the Cathedral and City Hall. Meanwhile the rain had stopped, and we ended up near a rocky beach and the local park. We spotted a few sloths having naps in a tree high above us. on the way back to the boat, we had to wind our way back through the very busy market. Back on the boat it was nap time, likely inspired by the sloths. The night we filled with going to the show listening to an impersonator,  who was actually pretty good. After some more music and sipping on a few Casa Amigos, we called’r the night.

Cheers
