Lush Beach Property for Sale in Uvita, Puntarenas, Costa Rica
" Little Paradise"a Unique Titled Property Steps From Beach
steps away from an enormous beach that stretches from Quepos to Ojochal. This lush lot nearly borders Marina Ballena National Park, the largest Marine preserve in Costa Rica, encompassing 13,300 acres of ocean and 270 acres of land. Though surrounded by open and preserved land, "Little Paradise" is minutes away from restaurants, accommodations, banks, and other services in the Uvita/Ojochal area.
This 1 acre (4000 sq. meter) property features a small forest of tall trees in the back, and in the front is a flat, buildable plot already richly landscaped with fruit trees, palms, and lined with a colorful ornamental hedge. The very front edge of the site is bordered by Public road with Public Water and Electricity access.
This property would serve as an excellent site for a custom home or set of small bungalows. With the incredible proximity to the beach, it would also serve as a perfect place for a "beach shack" for someone who lives in the mountains. This property has been meticulously maintained and planted and is ready to build!
Nearby Ballena Marine Park is named after the various whale species that migrate through these waters, including Humpback and Brice whales. The Humbacks mate and and can sometimes be seen with their
young in the warm waters off the shores of this spectacular water park, December to April. From May to November, the Hawksbill and Olive Ridley Turtles lay their eggs in the sandy beaches. The park contains the largest Coral Reef on the Pacific side of Central America, with outlying Cano Island being a favorite for scuba divers and snorkelers. Another favorite is dolphin spotting, who will often play along, swimming and jumping in front of the boat at high speeds. Sport fishing and surfing are also popular water activities, and the Little Paradise property is a few hundred meters walk through coconut palms to an excellent beach for beginners and surfers of all levels, making this location perfect for a surf school or camp. Dominical's well-known advanced surf break is just 10 minutes North.
Throughout the greater Southern Pacific Costa Rica region, attractions abound. On the North end is Manuel Antonio, the doorway to this region and the most visited Park in Costa Rica, (a great place to experience monkeys, as they are scattered every where the jungle touches the hotel and Restaurant zones). To the south is Ojochal, where one of the largest and truely unique mangroves in the Americas starts and continues on South and East through Drakes bay. Ojochal also boasts some of the more sophisticated dining in the area, largely due to its dense French-Canadian population. A bit further south is Corcavado National Park, an enormous protected peninsula of jungle and wild animals.
While Uvita's neighboring towns make for great day trips, you don't need to leave "Little Paradise" in order to enjoy everything Costa Rica has to offer. Most significantly, miles upon miles of untouched beaches await you directly out your front door, from the aforementioned Marina Ballena Park, to kayaking adventures through naturally-carved caves and stretches of shaded white sand to spend the day in complete relaxation. Uvita also has it's own eclectic mix of dining options and local businesses and a great community of locals. A five minute drive inland from Uvita can lead to numerous fresh water streams, many of which have great waterfalls and swimming holes. Up the mountain from Uvita in Escaleras are opportunities for guided horseback trips through jungle and to waterfalls. Just minutes away is a protected forest reserve with zip lines through ancient trees. Lastly, nearby neighboring town Dominical, the largest town in the immediate region, has a plethora of quality dining and nightlife options, along with adventure and tour companies.
The entire region has an intriguing mix of Jungle/Mangrove/Beach/Mountain environments, and it is almost definitely the perfect mix of secluded paradise and modern creature comforts. Technology has finally caught up to the region with cell service, and high speed internet available in most areas, with various wi-fi locations.
