San Jose, Costa Rica cruise port guide
San Jose is a large city surrounded by rolling hills in Silicon Valley, a major technology hub in California's Bay Area. Architectural landmarks, from the 1883 Italianate-style Oddfellows building to Spanish Colonial Revival structures, make up the downtown historic district. The downtown area is also home to the Tech Museum of Innovation, devoted to the exploration of science and technology.
About San Jose, Costa Rica
Puerto Limón is Costa Rica's main Caribbean port, serving as the gateway for cruise passengers accessing the country's spectacular natural attractions. While San José is the capital 160 km inland, Limón is the cruise call point offering access to the Tortuguero canals, Cahuita National Park, and the rainforests of the Caribbean slope.
Tortuguero is the signature excursion: boat rides through jungle canals teeming with monkeys, sloths, crocodiles, and turtles. Cahuita National Park combines snorkeling over Caribbean coral with jungle wildlife walks. For adventure, white-water rafting on the Sarapiquí is popular. Aerial tram rides through the jungle canopy are another highlight.
