A Laid-Back Start to the Journey

As a professional surfer, I’ve spent countless hours chasing the perfect wave along the sun-drenched coasts of Central America. But every now and then, it’s nice to take a break from the surfboard and explore the lush landscapes that lie beyond the beaches. That’s exactly what I did when I decided to embark on a private transport journey from Puerto Viejo to La Fortuna. The idea of a stress-free ride with scenic stops along the way was too tempting to resist.

The journey began in Puerto Viejo de Talamanca, a vibrant beach town known for its laid-back vibe and stunning surf spots. As I settled into the comfortable minibus, I couldn’t help but feel a sense of excitement for the adventure ahead. The driver, a friendly Costa Rican local, greeted me with a warm smile and assured me that we’d be making some unforgettable stops along the way.

Scenic Stops and Hidden Gems

Our first stop was a hidden waterfall nestled in the heart of the rainforest. As we hiked through the lush greenery, the sound of cascading water grew louder, and soon we were standing in awe of the breathtaking sight before us. The cool mist from the waterfall was a refreshing contrast to the warm tropical air, and I couldn’t resist taking a quick dip in the crystal-clear pool below.

Back on the road, we made our way to a traditional Costa Rican town, where I had the chance to explore local markets and sample some delicious street food. The vibrant colors and lively atmosphere of the town were a feast for the senses, and I found myself captivated by the rich culture and friendly locals.

A Relaxing End to the Adventure

As we continued our journey, the landscape began to change, with rolling hills and lush valleys stretching out as far as the eye could see. The minibus was equipped with Wi-Fi, allowing me to share my adventures with friends and family in real-time. It was a perfect blend of relaxation and exploration, and I couldn’t have asked for a better way to travel.

Finally, we arrived in La Fortuna, a charming town nestled at the base of the majestic Arenal Volcano. The journey had been a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, and I felt rejuvenated and inspired by the natural beauty of Costa Rica. Whether you’re a fellow surfer looking for a break from the waves or simply seeking a unique travel experience, I highly recommend this scenic journey for a truly unforgettable adventure.
