Holidays in Portalon

If 'dull' is how you'd describe your life right now, then you definitely need an adventure! Why not book a ticket to Portalon and lose yourself in the stunning beaches, forests and mountains of Central Pacific Coast?

Spend at least a couple of hours photographing the ocean views at Jaco Beach or Manuel Antonio Beach.

It's no secret that getting outside is good for you. With that in mind, why don't you head 17 kilometres out of Portalon to Manuel Antonio National Park? Chirripo National Park, just 45 kilometres away, is another top option.

You'll discover even more just down the road. Palma Quemada, 9 kilometres to the southeast, is known for Costa Rica Stand Up Paddle Boarding and Costa Rica Dive and Surf. Though, if Hacienda Baru and the Parque Reptilandia are more appealing, go 20 kilometres east from Portalon to Platanillo.

Heading to Grecia? This place is 90 kilometres to the northwest. If you're staying here a while, make sure you visit the World of Snakes, the Arte Latino and the Melia Cariari Golf Course. Also consider stopping in at Cementerio General de San Jose and Ruinas de Ujarras.

Sunbathing and bird watching are excellent ways to slow down if all that sightseeing has left you feeling frazzled.

Take the hassle out of travel planning as you make new friends on guided nature walks and wildlife spotting tours.

Are you interested in spending time by the water? Add a splash of excitement to your holiday by going swimming or surfing.

Ready to crunch, munch, gnaw, nibble and drink your way around Central Pacific Coast? A world of decadent flavours awaits you here, so get on your stretchiest slacks and bon appétit!

Once you find a table and look over a menu at a café or restaurant, you'll soon discover that pork and chicken are two ingredients commonly found in dishes here.

There's always a local recipe or two you absolutely have to try, and during your time in Portalon, pargo (red snapper) is definitely among them. Casado is another culinary classic that you should keep an eye out for.

Tres leches (custard flan) is a dessert that summarises this place in a single mouthful. Put in an order for a serving and then come back for more!

It can be hard to sort the wheat from the chaff when it comes to fine beers, but one brew worth tossing back is Bavaria. Grab a pint and drink up!

Ron Centenario is what the locals have when the night motions for something a little more potent. Ask the barkeeper for a taste and see if it turns on your taste buds.

Ask any avid traveller and they'll tell you that the simplest way to get the most out of your time away is to try out a couple of the local phrases. First of all, try to get your mouth around '¿Cómo estás?'. It translates to 'how are you?'. Maybe you'll find '¡Salud!' a little bit easier to say? It means 'cheers/good health!'.

There's bound to be a party atmosphere in the air leading up to the 15th of September. The locals will be making preparations for Independence Day, a day of national celebrations.

"Hasta la vista" doesn't have to mean farewell forever. Why not hold onto a few Costa Rican colóns for your next holiday?

Quepos Airport (XQP), the closest airport, is just 19 kilometres to the northwest from the centre of Portalon. Map out a route, pack up your suitcase and set an alarm clock — and make sure you don't hit the snooze button too many times!
