The 193,000 cruise passengers who arrive annually to Costa Rica’s Caribbean will soon enjoy renovated facilities.
The Costa Rican government announced this week it is investing more than $200,000 to renovate the Hernán Garrón Salazar terminal in Limón.
“We want to take your breath away from your first look, so that later you will fall in love with the flavor, nature, music, culture and beauty of all the cantons of this Caribbean province,” said the Executive President of the Board of Directors of the Atlantic Port Authority (JAPDEVA), Andrea Centeno.
