Pavones
On the southernmost corner of Costa Rica, near the border of Panama, lies a wonder of the surfing world........"The Three Minute Left". That left break, the second longest left break known on the planet will take surfers for a three minute, picture perfect ride between April and October.

Electricty arrived in Pavones in 1995, and with it came modern appliances, DirectTV, email and faxes. The main mode of transportation in Pavones has gone from the horse to the bicycle. The Pavones Bus is an infamous institution in its own right in the town. Fortunately, Pavones' remote location has slowed development and the natural unspoiled atmosphere is being preserved. Conservation awareness and reforestation and wildlife preservation projects are thriving, as well as community beach clean-ups. With an interesting mix of nationalities, Pavones is a thriving and peaceful community. There's a little bit of something for everyone in the tiny town of Pavones.

Although Pavones is famed for the perfect left that breaks right in front of  The Cantina, the main landmark for miles around, there's also a perfect right break just a few miles down the road. Surfing is king in Pavones, but tour operators in the town also can arrange hiking, snorkeling, horseback riding, canoeing, fishing, kayaking, rafting, biking, boating, rock climbing, and bird watching tours.
