Marino Ballena National Park

Marino Ballena National Park protects a broad South Pacific shoreline around Uvita. The Punta Uvita landform and long beach are its clearest features on foot.

Why go

The shore opens into a wide coastal landscape, with Punta Uvita projecting into the sea and changing appearance with the tide. Walking the sand reveals a different side of the park from offshore wildlife tours. The protected beach itself is enough to make this a substantial Uvita stop.

What to look for

  • A protected stretch of South Pacific coast.
  • The broad beach and Punta Uvita landform at low tide.
