Considering the Hotel Punta Cocles in Puerto Viejo?

beach strolls and fishermen by arasnosliw
I took a late afternoon walk along the rocky shore a few kilometers south of the center of Puerto Viejo. Just north of town is a black sand beach. Within town are many white sand beaches. Once you hit where I am, however, the beaches turn into rock. Jagged rock for that matter. Make sure to wear sturdy shoes if walking along here. I was wearing flip-flops and cut the bottoms of my feet a few times from slipping out of them. Along this coast there are beautiful rock formations that emerge from short distances offshore. Local fisherman throw out their lines from shore and bask in the sun, awaiting dinner to bite. Stop and chat with them; they?re exceptionally friendly.
