You dont know much about Europe do you! It is very normal so many countries and places that woman can live safe like you described. Would love to go to Costa rica though! Is there many snakes?
Mostly accurate. Definitely speaking from his experience. A few points (from a born and raised Costa Rican):
Costa Rica is not “very cold”. It can get chilly in certain areas. But unless you’re climbing the Chirripó, it’s not that cold even in the winter. Take a jacket. But nothing wintry.
Winter in Costa Rica means rain. Temperatures stay basically the same throughout the year for each particular area.
Crime is everywhere in the world. Just use common sense. Out of all Latin American Countries, CR is always on top, and definitely the safest in Central America. Be smart.
Clear water. Yes, we do have that and the turquoise looking ones too. Many actually. Just have to know where to go. Many different types and colors of beaches too.
As far as being charged more if you pay in dollars, yes. But, that’s because foreign currency in CR has a purchase and sale value. Merchants and businesses get paid less for their dollar when they deposit it or exchange it. And they have to pay fees. When I go, I use my credit/check card. It will automatically do the conversion and I found the fees to be lower than what they charge extra in Costa Rica. Or you can just get familiar with colones and just use that.
Tip: Even if you’re just vacationing, make friends with locals. We love people and it’s easy for us to make long term friendships from short interactions. Then next time you go, you’ll feel like you have family there. Costa Ricans are extremely friendly and helpful and willing to go out of our way to make you feel at home.
Try to memorize/learn the basics of Spanish. It means a lot to us when you see someone trying to learn our mother tongue. We will help you :)
Don’t expect people to be in a hurry to serve you or get things done fast for you. It’s part of our culture to take our time. To have long conversations. To take a siesta at lunch. Etc. Be open minded, relax, and enjoy the Pura Vida.
thank you, gracious, Pura Vida! We sure miss your country and wonderful Ticos/ticas
The "very cold" comment caused me to literally guffaw loudly. I am from the Canadian prairies ... you aren't allowed to call something "very cold" unless it's approaching -30C. Any part of the world that stays above 20C most of the time, or even 15C ... I'd call that perfectly warm, and I'll be happy in shorts and a tank top. A jacket in that weather just seems silly ;)
@@MichaelIreland That's insane, anything below 70 degrees Fahrenheit is cold to me, I went to Calgary, the Calgary Zoo, around May of last year, and I was freezing the entire time. If it's 60 I feel like putting a big jacket on.
@@lexruptor it's funny how we all get acclimated so thoroughly, eh? Many of my coworkers are unhappy above 75F outside.
We are planning to go in December and will be there during Christmas time. Are there any Christmas related activities that we can enjoy such as Christmas plays, parades, fiestas, etc? Are there restaurants that serve Christmas lunch or dinner?
As a Costa Rican I can confirm all the information is pretty accurate.
For the most part. He said it get really cold. I would disagree. It gets chilly, not really cold. Unless you’re climbing the Chirripó. As for the clear turquoise water, yes you can get those in Costa Rica. Just have to know where to go. Other than that, he’s pretty close or accurate on everything else.
I wonder what villages he went to? Other than that, is mostly accurate.
Have they lifted there covid rules?
When is the best month to travel for warmest climate and least amount of rain?
Thanks for spotlighting Costa Rica!
This is one of the more accurate reports of this kind that I have watched, straight down the middle on the reality. I am CR resident for more than 20 years and know the country quite well. Some points could be better developed, but really quite on the money. One aspect missing however which is important, especially since renting a car is recommended, is Driving in Costa Rica, and tips re parking, valuables, accidents. etc. Good work!
proper video, thanks brother! heading there sooontiiiime 🍻🍻🍻
Thank you. Very informative!
Nice and helpful video! 🙏🏼
Thanks for your videos about Costa Rica and San Jose.
I absolutely love this guy and his videos
Thank you for the tips I'm saving it, for our summer trip God wiling.
Great job with this!
great video , I'm going next month! very excited!!!!
How is the Covid restrictions?
Excellent video. Very informative
wow speechless another amazing tourist spot!tnx honky tonky
great video , thanks! Pura vida!
lots of good info cheers man ur living the life
Cool video man!
Nice video! I´ve been twice in Costa Rica and agree with you. 🙂 Pura vida!
You can find black Sand beaches, tan sand beaches, white Sand beaches with clear water both on the pacific and the caribbean... Just ask around which ones to visit.
beautiful presentation about Tiquisia many thanks
This is a surprisingly good account of Costa Rica for someone who hasn't spent a lot of time here. I could nitpick a couple minor things, but well done overall!
Your videos are so helpful! Thank you for taking the time to make these. Do you have a video on Thailand?
I really love this video
Thanks for sharing 🌴🐚🐬🇨🇷
thank you for this video, i'm planning a solo trip to Costa Rica!! all of your tips are super helpful and make me feel more confident traveling alone!
Planning a trip in August
@@miss.e7450 omg I'm jealous, I already want to plan my next trip there! you're going to have sooo much fun. I recommend adding some airbnb experiences if you're going solo and want to meet some folks!
@@autumnspov how was the trip ? I'm thinking about going on my first ever solo trip.
@@jaydiaz3249 I recommend going to Costa Rica as your first solo trip. What part would you be visiting? I stayed for a week, did some airbnb experiences to meet people and i had so much fun. No regrets at all. The food was amazing, vibes immaculate and everyone was so kind. I made sure to have things planned for everyday, I went hiking, boat tour, bar hopping, and multiple beach days. Depending on where you stay, I would also recommend renting a car. Driving there honestly wasn't bad, but it does get a little scary at night as they don't have many street lights (depending on where you stay). Please go!! and enjoy your trip. I want to plan another Costa Rica trip soon! The locals told me November is a nice time to go.
THANK YOU , YOUR VERY PROFESSIONAL
GOOD VOICE , NO SCREAMING THANK YOU
Wow, this is great
Would love for you to do Belize! Thank you 😊
Thank you!
Excellent... thank you for the info ❤️
Thanks for the vid! I leave in 2 weeks going on a Road Scholar tour visiting mostly the interior (jungles, wildlife)
Nice editing. 😊
Dope video
Love this video very informative 👏 👌
I have lived here in CR for 21 years and have learned more about touristic things in your video than all the time I've lived here. Hahaha, I go to Quepos to get out of San Jose. On the other side, I go to Arenal but rarely, it's a long ways and the roads are horrible
I agree with some of the things you have said and it always makes chuckle to listen to gringos pronounce Spanish words. I will read some of the comments and try to answer some of them.
One thing I want to clear up is the fraise Pura Vida. It's their fraise, it's there way of greeting us gringos and especially to their Tico friends. We don't say it to them first, let them say it to you.
Phrase
That is exactly right, what a traveler there what do you recommend? Thanks
I’m going to Costa Rica soon and I can’t wait! It looks so beautiful.
Awesome we have a lot more Costa Rica videos coming soon too!
You'll love it and the people are so friendly. Don't be in a hurry. Relax. Pura Vida.
Nice! All tourists are welcomed
Welcome pura vida. 🇨🇷
Please how do I go about it?
Question: Can you get departure COVID tests at Liberia airport or in Playa Hermosa my last stop..?.. I’m coming in early April. Thank you. Very helpful video
Good video lots info , you should add prices to those meals you bought
What beach are you at when talking about vaccine? 🌊 love the surf vibe
good video
Any particular eco resorts/glamping you would recommend?
thanks for the info but I will keep my east coast experience thanks
Superb information.
Can you list down, the most safest villagers in your opinion and experience so far?
Thanks
CR is basically safe. Actually, Nicaragua is the safest Central American country as regards to violent crimes. It's rare tourists are hit with violent crimes here. Just be aware of your surroundings. Jaco is a hot spot for crimes. If you drive a rental, it's a red flag that your car will be broken into. Hide your valuables under the seat. ALWAYS carry your passport in a front pocket, not a back pocket. US passports are worth a lot of money on the black market. If a stranger approaches you, just put up your hand in a motion to stop and you should not be bothered. Be aware of Americans coming up to you and asking "do you speak English", just say NO. He wants to hit you up for money with a heartbreaking story of how he is stranded here and needs money to get back to the US. I've lived here 21yrs. I've seen it all.
@@mikee2 NIcaragua is NOT the safest I'm half CR and half Nicaraguan no no no
Go to the Caribbean!! Cahuita, Manzanillo, Puerto Viejo, you Will find Costa Rica's best beaches
Playa carrillo! Guanacaste. Spectacular beach! Blue flag. Pristine with many palm trees. Scarlet macaws, howler monkey and amazing Sunsets.
Agree the Caribbean was less saturated with tourists. Pac side felt like Disney. Not able to see Manuel Antonio park due to visitor limits. If you want to see it, book online asap. The only unsafe part anywhere was at the natl park at Uvita, where the police took plates of the cars parked on the street. No signs, painted curb, warning. Rental car places will change however long car is unrentable plus the ticket! ⚠️ ⚠️ Warning ⚠️ ⚠️
@@mayrastearns6118 I think with the pacific side it all depends on what area you are in. Playa Del, coco, Flamingo, Tamagringo especially very much Amercanised. Playa Samara, Carrillo and some other beaches a little further south still very much costa rica with a good mix of both Tico and gringo. Carrillo beach is probably one of the most beautiful beaches in Costa Rica an there are many beautiful beaches here. The beaches here are incredible. the infrastructer 1000 time better plus being only a little over an hr from Liberia Airport is another big plus. It all depends what you are looking for. We live up on a mountain 4 km From
Samara, 4 km from Carrillo beach, Spectacular views in a tico community and noticbly cooler up here also compared to down at the beach. We get to listen to the monkeys every day and have many many beautiful birds and butterflys visit daily. Alot less mosquitos where we are also.....that is a big big plus ;) ;)
Happy new year everyone! Pura Vida ;)

You guys should look at a channel; called Salty Palmtree adventures, a couple that building their surf bungalows in Nosara Costa Rica, great channel!
Jurassic Park's author picked an island off of Coast Rica to base the story on because it's so wild, so full of life. Heck that's where I'D build a dino park.
Whats the first beach on the video? Gracias
Going to CR in june 2022. Do you need to change your currency? Or can you use the US dollar?
Panama is a very safe place as well..
I do wonder where all the people that say the water isn't warm come from. The average temperature is 80F degrees , even in tortuguero, during green(rainy) season, it can go to 76F degrees, that is still pretty warm, even coming from me, someone that lived years in San Diego, and is native of Brazil.
Good video but how you gonna wear both quicksilver and HuK at the same time bro?
Lol 😃 didn’t cross my mind at the time was going for uv resistance and water resistance
Can you please name the beaches you showed in your video? Particularly the one at the start of the video, and the one you showed a clip of while comparing the Caribbean and Pacific sides. Thanks!!
That would have been nice, to name the places/beaches that he was speaking from.
How about tour companies on tripadvisor? I'm going to Costa Rica this Saturday.
Hey thanks for sharing. What's the lodging by the river in Quetzales? The one you mentioned for $85 a night I believe. Booking a trip and wanted to check this spot out.
I recommend this one... Hotel Sueños del Bosque Lodge but the one you are asking about specifically is called Savegre Hotel Natural Reserve & Spa
@@IslandHopperTV thank you so much. I appreciate your honest recommendation! Thanks IH!
how about going there in august? to much rain or is it fine to go? thanks :D
What is the name of the first beach in the video when you are talking? Looks like a cove with still sea.
Great video, where is the first beach on your video? The beach that you are in the beginning of your video. Thank you
Isla Tortuga near Montezuma
@@IslandHopperTV thank you so much
Come visit us in Heredia! We'd love to give you a tour of our beautiful city and share with you a bit of the colonial architecture Costa Rica has to offer. We know the beaches and cloud forests are great, but so are our cities! 🇨🇷🤗
Heredia is beautiful. I got a gorgeous leather jacket from one of the shops downtown.
🇵🇰❤️🇨🇷
Any concern with Zika and Dengue there now? Are mosquitos everywhere?
How long can we stay if we rent a house long term? is there any restrictions now because of covid?
Essential Costa Rica is about promoting organic ingredients, unspoiled nature and authentic experiences.
who do you travel with? you never show that other persons face, just curious, great channel
For solo guy where good to stay and I looked airport is near hotels but far from beach where is good to stay
What is the name of the gorgeous beach in the first clip?
I'm(29 yrs old) going on a solo trip to costa rica for 1 month: 2 weeks january + 2 weeks february. I'm planning 4 days at la fortuna, 4 days at monteverde, and then going to the pacific coast : tamarindo,santa teresa. Not sure how to distribute the rest of the days and destination. thanks
Good video, but wrong about beaches and water temp, you have to choose the right time a year and consider huracanes in the Caribbean and rain but most of the time in the Caribbean the water is warm and clear. In the pacific from January to March is actually to hot. But the cooler it gets usually the better waves. But never gets as cold as the US, Australia, Europe or even Mexico or Brasil.

Thank you for all in info. Is it a good idea to base staying in one area and do day trip or moving hotels as we go?. I am thinking to stay in Manuel Antonio. Is the driving from SJO to Manuel safe? I can't find direct flight from NORCAL to either Liberia or SJO. Do you know any?
@@Noah-nt2kk thank you
You'd probably want to change hotels based on where you want to go. It takes a long time to get from point A to B in Costa Rica because there is a fair amount of traffic in San José and the "highway" out to the Pacific side often has traffic jams as Ticos escape the city for the weekend or national holidays. Plus, the weather is very rough on the roads so they can wash out unexpectedly and there might not be an easy route around it. The roads to the Caribbean side go over some mountains and are narrow, so driving them is a real challenge for foreigners. I recommend NOT renting a car and using microbuses to get around the country. They are safer than driving, will pick you up at your hotel or have an easily found location where you meet. Getting around locally is best done via the government regulated taxis (red with a yellow sign on the door), though I did hitchhike a short distance in Puerto Viejo--I wouldn't recommend that for someone new to the country.
The main areas that tourists want to go and should see are:
1. Monteverde (cloud forest)
2. Manuel Antonio South of Puntarenas and then one of the beach towns North of Puntarenas on the Pacific side
3. Puerto Viejo and the other beaches South of Limón on the Caribbean side.
4. La Fortuna/Arenal although I believe the volcano is still dormant since 2010.
5. The Metro San José area where a couple of volcanos and some beautiful falls are located.
Downtown San José isn't the prettiest city, but there are great museums and the National Theatre as well as some excellent restaurants in the Barrio Escalante neighborhood. Of course the Mercado Central is fun as you get hopelessly lost in the warren of stalls and sodas. The city has a calendar of events for each month and usually (pre-covid) has a free day for all of the museums with entertainment. The city is culturally rich with all kinds of music, art, local theater groups, food, and even circus performers. It's worth bookending your stay with visits into the city on arrival and departure. Ticos are very gracious and polite people, so being polite and respectful with them will go very far and they'll gladly engage in conversation about their country and ask you questions about yours. I lived there for two years and made friends for life while there. I'm eager to go back as soon as possible. Pura vida 😊
@@dmcmdr awesome. Thank you so much for the info & advice👍
I've seen people try to make it as "locals" in CR since I was 6 years old when my own dad had this need to "escape" by jet setting each year to CR to surf. They eventually all make it home though, one way or another, my dad died in 2011 in Tamarindo and came home in the form of ashes inside one of those clay pots you see the vendors selling to tourists on the beach. Ironic and truly heartbreaking but I will leave you with this: Life is short, spend it with the ones you love, you don't need to run away from your family to experience life. Experience it, but don't leave your family waiting.
May I ask, how your dad died? Sorry, your dad is gone, but we all go there , both my parents are dead, so I know how lonely it gets!
What you have said is so true, I know where you coming from!
God bless always..
🙏☮️💟
There's nothing wrong with deciding to live in another country. The only real issue with people from the US moving to Costa Rica is that they often move to ex-pat communities and don't actually try to learn the language or get to know the people. I lived there for two years while completing my PhD and, because my research didn't involve ex-US citizens, lived in a Costa Rican neighborhood, met and became friends with Ticos, hired them as research assistants, and got my food and services from my neighborhood businesses. I would have stayed had I not had to return to the US to finish the final stage of my degree. My friends constantly ask when I am coming back. That's not running away. That's going to a place, learning it's culture, being respectful of its traditions, manners, and language and treating its citizens with respect. Not something many people from the US can really do well at home with each other let alone in another country with a different language and way of life.
¡Pura vida!🙂🙂🙂🙂
I want to do some camping in the wilderness in costa rica neqr the areas on manuel antonio la fortuna and lots of other places qnd i wonder if its recommended to do so and if its safe, you know like opening a tent and starting a campfire and staying the night in some rain forest
Btw great video!! Its very useful and the information was not boring for a second, will definitely send it to my peers
There is loads to do on the Caribbean side! This guy doesn't know what he is talking about. The Sloth farm is there, the Cahuita national park, great, rustic bars on the beaches like Johnny's place. There si a general cool, laid back Caribbean vibe and you eat much better in the Caribbean than you do elsewhere. There is also the wildlife rescue refuge, great beaches like Punta Uva and Monkey island (there is also great diving off the Cahuita reefs). You can also get your diving certificate there. You are also near Tortugero National Park and can do great boat trips (there are loads of animals there). Foreigner feel safer on the Pacific coast primarily because it is white!
You're totally right
Yes there is lots to do on the Caribbean side but there is more to see on the Pacific Side… Manuel Antonio, Corcovado, Uvita/Dominical, Popagayo, Nicoya, Jaco, La Fortuna, Monteverde and last but not least the roads and ease of transit including the international airports are on the Pacific Side… more animals on the Pacific side many more monkeys, tucans, guacamaya, Quetzales as well as the best places to see crocodiles in the river all on the Pacific side… better beaches on Pacific side as there are far more beaches… Caribbean side is awesome too but to say that the Caribe is better than the Pacific side is a very unpopular opinion held by very very few visitors…
@@IslandHopperTVyou’re wrong dude
Thank you for this! Looking for more info on the Caribbean side. If you have any Airbnb recommendations would ❤ to hear it
Does anyone know if you need any vaccines for like yellow fever or other disesases?
Pretty good video, however, as with most of the visit CR videos, you do not go further south than Manuel Antonio. The Ballena coast and the southern zone are spectacular and there is so much to see and do. The Whales Tail, the Mangroves in Sierpe, Drake Bay and Corcovado National Park.
I can list a whole bunch of other ereas that are never mentioned on videos for costa rica and are just as spectacular if not more. But then that would mean them being put more on the map.......They are wonderful as they are. If people took the time to do there own exploring they would be amazed at what they will find and see with out even stepping one foot in a tourist hot spot ;)
Uvita is incredible
Hi Bill
Actually we have travelled right from the Osa Golfo dolce all the way up to libera done some of the central valley and right down into guanacaste & Nicoya.. Unfortinatley when we first started our travels here we did not have this channel. We had already been here 3 months. We only started the channel because we were getting asked alot to share our travels on you tube. So here we are. We loved the OSA! Even looked at property there. But! More remote and 6 plus hr drive to nearest international airport. We looked at many other places also. Maybe one day this year we can nake a trip back and share our trip here.
Happy new year & thank you so much for watching.
Pura vida!
Hi! What are the names of the hotels you stayed at? Planing on going soon :)
You can get hotels from $15 and up. When you look for a hotel, it's best to get on that is centrally located and in a good area. Stay in the area called Rohrmoser, safe, good restaurants, located centrally. There are all kind of hotels from the Hilton on down there. Been here 21yrs.
What beach is he at the first 2 min of the video?
any good places for BODY surfing....I don't surf but I like to BODY surf. Anyone have any suggestions?
How should one get from airport to hotel??
Can you please add best ways to get around.....shuttle buses, rental cars, etc....Do tourists need to rent a car or are buses easily available?
Hey Silver. The best way I can put it it this. The best way to see the most is rental car. That is if you feel comfortable driving in Costa Rica. The second best way is to hire a private driver. Although that is more expensive. The cheapest way to get around is taking the buses that the locals take. Another option which I think is great if the price is right, is a tour or expedition... There are many bus stations around the country. Just do the research on the bus station location at each destination you want to visit.
For getting to all the tourist places, I recommend microbuses which your hotel can help you arrange. I've driven in Costa Rica and when I returned and lived there for two years, I, specifically, did not drive anywhere on purpose. Between the weather, the traffic, and the maniacal driving of Ticos, you'll be on the verge of a heart attack all the time (and Ticos readily admit that they are crazy drivers). In the cities, taxis are just fine, but have your hotel write down what you need to say to the driver about where you want to go because Costa Rica is just now starting to label streets and buildings with addresses but I can guarantee that the taxi drivers will still use the Tico way of finding things which is based on landmarks (which may or may not still be in existence).
Don't drive. It's just not worth it in a country where taxis, private transportation services, and buses go to every corner of the country.
Costa Rica is an expensive country. Usually I shop at price smart when I'm there and groceries for the week for me is about $160USD, it's basically the same for me in Canada. Restaurants in Santa Ana and Escazu are basically on par with American restaurants. I usually spend $4000 for one month in Costa Rica.
Love Costa Rica and I'll probably go one more time. After that I'll probably check out some other countries.
I have lived here 21yrs. YES, it's getting very expensive. Basically, CR follows the US, about 6 months behind. CR is upping the prices because the US is. Take eggs for example, eggs were 1500 colonies for 30 eggs. Now it's doubled to 3,000 colonies in 1 week......The eggs are from HERE, not imported but it's a good excuse to raise prices. There are 2 things you can depend on in life......death .........and......greed.
Walmart is pure greed. Walmart upped all their prices about 20%. Now, the merchandise that is on the shelves, they have already paid for that stuff, why up the prices?
Greed, pure and simple. Same goes for Pricesmart, it's an American company.
Next time you come down, shop locally. You will find prices at what they should be. Any questions, just answer this message.
@MG really? You just referenced two of the richest/ well off areas of Costa Rica near the capital. Meaning they are near a large city and of course everything is going to be more expensive there. I don’t know what you are spending $4000 on but that is an extravagant lifestyle. That is almost 2.6 million colones.
@@wrasslin4552 I've been here 21 years and you are soooo right, 2.6million colones is EXTRAVAGANT. I remember when I first got here, 5.000 colones in bar you could stay and drink beer all afternoon AND.......AND....for every beer they would give a boca, a little dish of food. Now, 5.000 is 2 beers and if you want something to eat, they give you a menu, starting at 2.400 for something small. Costa Rica is pricing itself out of the tourist business and they can't see that.
Everything here is for sale or rent. What's so stupid, is the owners can't rent an apt. so they up the rent. I would rather rent something and have a positive cash flow than sit on something hoping for a sucker to pay the higher rent. But these people aren't business smart. And cheat you, please, it's in their blood. If they can't cheat you, they have failed, this goes as well for the Chinese, crooks in a different skin. A guy asked me if I knew an honest attorney, hahaha.......HERE in Costa Rica, don't make me laugh.
You CAN live on a small income, I do, but you have to shop at the right places and look for specials. One thing here, if you see something you have been looking for, but it right there and then. If you come back tomorrow, it won't be there. I can go on but time to have some coffee.
Nicaragua is actually a good option very similar to CR but less developed. Friendly people and cheaper than CR.
Beautiful country and the most Expensive country in South America, similar rates than in Europe or usa . And that put mi off .
you can stay in 'Hostels'and ride the bus , or stay in Luxury Hotels with rental cars . Lots of options in between . Live simple and enjoy the beauty .
Did you have to get travel (health) insurance?
If you are in vaccinated you will need that
Saludos a los amigos de la factoría electrónica en l San José antes c&k
For a 3 week visit, do we need vaccines? Thanks, CDC says yes, we think no? Please
Help
The CDC makes recommendations. But recommendations and requirements are different. You need to see what Costa Rica requires for you to enter.
Anyone take private boats to costa rica? What’s the usual protocol?
What is the first beach he was standing in?
The Mandate for vaccinated people to enter establishments and tours was overruled by the courts earlier this month. It is been put on Hold till April 2022. BUT! This is costa rica and things constantly change. But as of right now, no mandates as far as tourism.
Pura Vida! from beautiful Samara ;)
Thank you for the update! Pura Vida
Hi what are the updates for leaving costa Rica back to the US? I appreciate it
Presidential elections are coming up in February! That's why! The tourist board is rejecting the mandate. Stay tuned! Pura Vida!
Where can I look this info up? I was literally booked to come but canceled because I’m not vaccinated 😔 and I read their requirements. Looking to re book again. Thanks
@@destinationdezz1588 i personally ask you to not travel to Costa Rica if unvaccinated, our numbers are doing great so please get vaccinated if you plan on coming
How in the world do I get to Uvita from San Jose?
What is this first beach you are at?
Yeah where is that location?
I’m curious about phone usage
Can you give me a link to a trusted shuttle company. Liberia to Junquilall
What makes the cities not safe?
Some interesting information, but the pronunciation is way off for so many different places and words. It would be helpful to name some of the specific beaches on each of the coasts and what makes each so unique.
funny you say cold water its actually warmer 27 deg Celsius, than Hawai'i 25 deg avg
Is it still strict for unvaxed people?
wanna know a people, look at the street dogs. are they friendly or do they shy away. if they are friendly, people are good. if they shy away, be wary. street dogs in cr are friendly :)
Best advice, Thank you!
