From Playa Cocles to Playa Manzanilla, Puerto Viejo is a great spot for beginner and advanced surfers to ride some waves and connect with local and international surf enthusiasts. The best time to visit some of the surf spots in Puerto Viejo is between January and March when the swells can get fairly big.

The lodge

With a prime beachfront position in the heart of Puerto Viejo, experience the pure Vida lifestyle at our eco-friendly oasis. Whether you want to go snorkeling or SUP boarding through coral reefs, ride through the rainforest on horseback, or trek through the trails at Cahuita National Park, there are plenty of activities to try just minutes from our hotel.

Plus, if you’re craving some Afro-Caribbean cuisine, taste local flavors at authentic restaurants in the town, located less than 1km from Selina.

On-site features include a swimming pool, a pizza garden, a beachfront bar, a yoga deck, a CoWork, and complimentary WiFi.

Wake up to the sounds of crashing waves and croaking frogs in our unique teepees before sitting down to a fresh breakfast at the beachfront. Head to the shore and dive into a range of water sports, or trek through the Gandoca Manzanillo Wildlife Refuge and look out for wild manatees and jaguars. Back at Selina, grab a slice of pizza and get productive in our CoWork, and as the sun sets, order a drink at the bar, listen to the sounds of live music, and get ready to dance the night away with like-minded travelers.
