Enjoy yoga on vacation in Puerto Viejo, Costa Rica

Yoga happy in Puerto Viejo Costa Rica

“Find moments in your day to be grateful, to hold peace for a moment, appreciate beauty in the world, and remember to smile.”


Even if you don’t come to Costa Rica for a yoga retreat, you can still practice yoga on your vacation. Yoga has become so popular in Costa Rica that you can find a yoga class or instructor in nearly every part of the country. That is especially true on Costa Rica’s Caribbean Coast.

The areas of Puerto Viejo and Playa Cocles in the Southern Caribbean Costa Rica are excellent for practicing yoga. Easily some of the prettiest beaches of Caribbean Costa Rica, the really special thing about this region is that when you are on the beach, all around you there is only nature … and maybe the occasional person or pretty tropical bird or monkey. Here, there is harmony with the rainforest and ocean, and the widely-varied international population lives a relaxed, laid-back lifestyle. Perfect energy for yogis and yoginis.
