Uvita Holidays

The picture-perfect town of Uvita sits pretty on the Pacific coast of Costa Rica, surrounded by equally attractive beaches and abundant wildlife. Although slightly off the beaten track, Uvita is famed for hosting an annual music event and boasts a lively nightlife scene, with several bars and restaurants offering live music and entertainment. Marino Ballena National Park is one of the region’s natural standouts and its vast array of marine life – namely humpback whales, sea turtles and colourful fish – are best appreciated during a boat tour or snorkelling trip. Uvita’s heavenly beaches draw avid wave riders from all over and the surfer-studded swells are a great escape from the heat of the sun. Yet if you’re keen to keep your feet firmly on dry land, the silvery sand was tailor-made for sunseekers; Uvita Beach even features a unique land formation that resembles a whale’s tail. With its welcoming community and tranquil beauty, Uvita is the ideal destination for both nature lovers and anyone seeking a beachside holiday.
