Greencoast.com Information

Greencoast is dedicated to ecotourism in Talamanca, Costa Rica. Included are some of the true pioneers of responsible, community oriented tourism. The combination of Afro Caribbean, Indigenous BriBri , and Latin peoples makes Talamanca Costa Rica's most ethnically diverse canton. To experience some of what these communities have to offer, the visitor should probably begin in the Puerto Viejo area. The coastal South Caribbean communities of Puerto Viejo, Cocles, Punta Uva, Playa Chiquita, and Manzanillo are situated between the ocean's warm waters and coral reefs on the one side, and forest clad slopes on the other. Our micro-climate leads to a special ecology unique to Costa Rica. Many visitors to Puerto Viejo come for the world class palm fringed beaches, largely bypassing Talamanca's fascinating forest and Indigenous areas. The beaches are as beautiful as ever, but the desire of our group is to make your visit more complete by giving you the opportunity to see and learn more while involving yourself more directly and on a personal basis with our community. This website is your guide to responsible lodging, tours, activities and natural attractions, and the culture and history of Costa Rica's Talamanca region, put together by Talamanca Discovery, a group of people dedicated to ecotourism.
